Publisher's Summary
In an Audible Original dramatization, executive produced by Academy Award-winning film director Sam Mendes (American Beauty, 1917), come on a journey with David Copperfield as he finds his way in a challenging world. Starring Ncuti Gatwa (Sex Education, Barbie) in the title role, and featuring an all-star cast including Helena Bonham Carter (Sweeney Todd), Theo James (The White Lotus), Jessie Buckley (Chernobyl), Richard Armitage (The Hobbit), Jack Lowden (Slow Horses) and Toby Jones (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.)
Join David as he encounters his eccentric Aunt Betsey, faithful Peggotty and the villainous Uriah Heep, and as he falls in love with Little Em'ly, Dora and Agnes. And then there is old school friend James Steerforth: dashing, daring and seductive. This dramatisation explores the complexities and intimacies of that relationship beyond anything possible in Dickens' day, in an adaptation giving fresh life and vividness to this beloved tale.
The cast also stars Reece Kenwyne Mpudzi as young David Copperfield, Izuka Hoyle as Agnes, Ralph Ineson as Mr Creakle, Indira Varma as Jane Murdstone and Katy Wix as Mrs Micawber.

Outstanding & Thoroughly Engaging
I loved this cast recording! This is my first reading of David Copperfield and while I know this is an abridged adaptation it was an excellent introduction for me. I will now endeavour to read or listen to the full version.
Highly recommended.

Outstanding
While I haven't had the chance to read the original novel yet, this was such a wonderful listen. The performances, especially Ncuti Gates, were just fantastic. Simultaneously fun, heartbreaking and touching. Very highly recommended.
