The secret of happiness.——Book report on <David Copperfield>
Charles Dickens is fond of composing stories of ordinary tragic working-class people, often with a little metaphor of his own life. Well, David Copperfield is no exception. He lived a hard life under the torture of his step-father and step-aunt, then experienced the true society in that period of time by being forced into child-labor. After experiencing all the harsh treatments which were too much for a child his age to take, he slowly grows up in humiliation and shame. However, this did not tear him apart, but encouraged him in some way. He felt a stronger desire of a happier life, and will not stop pursuing it.
He ran off to live with his Betsey, got some proper education and was soon dragged into a far more complex situation. A tragedy unfolded before his eyes as his friend Steerforth seduced Emily (the daughter of David's house keeper) and later abandoned her elsewhere. Things eventually settled and he went back to his normal life. His first wife (the one he did not feel strongly of), died in a miscarriage. Later on he got married with Agnes (formerly his confidante). They lived happily ever after and the story ends right here.
Dickens is kind enough to give most of his characters happy endings, fairly enough for what they deserve. I do believe David deserved it, for he always had an optimistic spirit in him. At last, i'd assume, though Dickens chose to write about darks sides in the British society, what amuses the readers is that he never kills off all hope. There is always some light coming through the dark box of mysteries, and you just have to open it, even with the knowledge that there might be something very very heart-breaking inside.
