Matka ponownie wychodzi za mąż, ojczym zaś pozbywa się Dawida z domu. W szkole z internatem jest prześladowany i maltretowany przez nauczyciela. Nie jest to jednak koniec jego cierpień, wkrótce bowiem umiera mu też i matka. Dawid trafia do bardzo ciężkiej pracy w fabryce. Nędza i cierpienia go nie opuszczają. W jego nielekkim życiu pojawia się też wątek miłośny... Dalsze dzieje Dawida poznasz czytelniku z lektury książki. Jest to wzruszająca opowieść. Pokazująca ciężkie, smutne życie zwykłych ludzi. To historia, którą wielu z nas wciąż przeżywa i wielu, których jeszcze taki los dotknie... The story traces the life of David Copperfield from childhood to maturity. David was born in Blunderstone, Suffolk, near Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England, in 1820, six months after the death of his father. David spends his early years with his mother and their housekeeper, Peggotty. When he is seven years old his mother marries Edward Murdstone. David is given good reason to dislike his stepfather and has similar feelings for Murdstone's sister Jane, who moves into the house soon afterwards. Murdstone attempts to thrash David for falling behind in his studies. David bites him and soon afterwards is sent away to a boarding school, Salem House, with a ruthless headmaster, Mr. Creakle.
