David Copperfield (NL vertaling)

by Charles Dickens

David Copperfield volgt het leven van de jonge David vanaf zijn jeugd tot zijn volwassenheid. De roman schetst een levendig beeld van de Victoriaanse samenleving, met haar klassenverschillen, armoede en sociale ongelijkheid. David groeit op in een liefdevolle omgeving, maar wordt al vroeg geconfronteerd met de harde realiteit van de wereld wanneer zijn vader overlijdt en zijn moeder opnieuw trouwt met een wrede man. Hij wordt naar een grimmig internaat gestuurd, waar hij mishandeld wordt en zijn jeugd wordt overschaduwd door verdriet. Na zijn opleiding begint hij aan een carrière in de uitgeverij, waar hij zijn talent als schrijver ontdekt. Doorheen de jaren ervaart David liefde, verlies, succes en teleurstelling. Met een scherpe observatie en een levendige stijl vertelt Dickens het verhaal van David Copperfield, een roman vol humor, drama en mededogen.
