Let alone the 800+ pages of Dicken’s masterpiece and favorite “child”, “David Copperfield”.

Actually, this was on my booklist last year, and I’m getting through it now. I’ve read quite a bit, but we never did Dickens in my English classes, and I wanted to fill a hole.

Enjoying it so far. Prefer Tolstoy and Dostoyevski though.

My favorite too.

I have a complete set of leather bound Dickens that my parents bought in the UK when they lived there in the 50’s.
