    • Dickens referred to "David Copperfield" as his favorite work, and it holds significant literary value due to its autobiographical elements. After the death of his father, David Copperfield enjoys a happy childhood with his mother and their maid, Peggotty. His mother's remarriage to Murdstone brings tyranny and suffering until her death. David is thrown out of the house and placed as a servant in a London wine shop. He lives with Mr. Micawber, who is imprisoned due to his debts. David decides to visit his Aunt Trotwood in Dover, who takes him in and sends him to school in Canterbury. After school, David moves to London and meets his friend Steerforth. He aspires to become a lawyer and works in the office of Mr. Spenlow, developing a close relationship with his daughter, Agnes. During a visit to Yarmouth, he learns of Steerforth's elopement with Peggotty's niece, Emily. David secretly becomes engaged to Dora, but after losing Agnes's fortune, she moves in with him in London. David becomes a newspaper reporter and writer, marries Dora, who soon falls into difficult circumstances, and loses her shortly after. Emily is found by Peggotty, Steerforth dies, and the Peggotty family emigrates to Australia. Ultimately, David marries Agnes Wickfield, whom Dora had chosen as her successor.
