Publisher's Summary
Between his work on the 2014 Audible Audiobook of the Year, Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: A Novel, and his performance of Classic Love Poems, narrator Richard Armitage (The Hobbit, Hannibal) has quickly become a listener favorite. Now, in this defining performance of Charles Dickens' classic David Copperfield, Armitage lends his unique voice and interpretation, truly inhabiting each character and bringing real energy to the life of one of Dickens' most famous characters.
This epic, exuberant novel is one of the greatest coming-of-age stories in literature, chronicling David Copperfield's extraordinary journey through life as he encounters villains, saviors, eccentrics, and grotesques - including the wicked Mr. Murdstone, stouthearted Peggotty, formidable Betsey Trotwood, impecunious Micawber, and the odious Uriah Heep. Dickens' great novel (based, in part, on his own boyhood and which he described as a "favorite child") is a work filled with life, both comic and tragic.
Listen to Richard Armitage bring Dickens' words to life, and you'll understand why Virginia Woolf called David Copperfield "the most perfect of all the Dickens novels".

Beautiful
Everything about this audiobook is beautiful. The narration was done beautifully. When coming to the end of the book you can only wish it wouldn't end. You can only love David Copperfield.

A Wonderful Listening Experience.
It would be too presumptuous of ANYONE to attempt a review of Dickens’ David Copperfield- this magnum opus is a great canvas, across which he portrays a wide spectrum of emotions and characters. The power of his writing is immense!
The narration by Richard Armitage is outstanding- as always! He gives each character his/her own unique voice, specific inflections and accents which are consistently maintained throughout the performance.
This book is quite long. It is a 36 hours long Audiobook - but do not be daunted. It is a veritable audio treat. Just listen to Richard Armitage voicing Mr. Creakle, Mr. Peggotty or Mr. Micawber. Or Dora or Aunt Betsy.
The man is a consummate, superbly talented genius! His acting and voice work training just shines in Audible fiction narrations.
Highly recommended!
