My favorite Charles Dickens book is David Copperfield. I believe Dickens wanted it to be an autobiography.
It's the eighth novel by Dickens - I didn't realize that.
Yeah, it's great. I couldn't put it down once I started reading it.
You know, the full title is The Personal History, Adventures, Experience and Observation of David Copperfield the Younger of Blunderstone Rookery (Which He Never Meant to Publish on Any Account)
