David Copperfield (Modern Library)

Dickens is probably my favorite classic author. I usually read at least one of his books during the winter and this was one of my all time favorites.

Good read of course - it's Dickens!! Nothing extraordinary. Same old story. Tough childhood. Learning how to survive, Imaginary friend - acceptance of denial. Reaching for the stars... blah blah - boring, heard it before, lived it and survived it. Personally, as a foreigner I absolutely love the archaic english used in ALL Dickens novels - defo I have improved my english thx...more

I have read most of dickens - value his supreme narrative skills to the point - point? what point? Have I had a point to begin with? hahaha - too eased by his long winded writing.. hey - my hair does look drunk too - hahaha - always appreciate the writer's humor.   hide
