185066Bradbury & Evans 1850. First Edition. wrappers. Very good. 20 vols. in 19 a serialization sequentially published over 1 1/2 years. 1st edition 1st issue in the original monthly parts preceding all other editions and read the next sentence deliberately because the distressing phrase you inevitably see is "almost every" while the happy phrase you are about to see is "each and every." This set conforms to each and every point in Hatton & Cleaver all erratum the correct covers all ads all samples and all 40 inserted plates by H. K. Browne including the frontispiece and vignette title. And perfection is important in a Dickens parts serialization because later ads are the telltale sign of later issue in many cases months later so do not discount comprehensiveness as mere frill or turn your back on it the way you would on a drunk woman haphazardly seated nearby at a dinner party who relentlessly keeps insisting that you name your favorite Powerpuff Girl. Original wrappers neat repairs to backstrips light wear at edges else a very good set the old-fashioned very good infrequently offered for sale so clean complete upright and intact a stirring combination of quality magnitude precedence and inclusiveness. Full dark blue morocco case. Collation: Octavo 8 1/8" X 5 9/16". i-vii viii ix x-xii xiii xiv xv-xvi 1 2-624. Reference: Hatton and Cleaver pp. 253-272. Eckel pp. 75-77. Raising his game at the height of his powers Dickens explores writing in the first person and achieves the great novel of initiation finding the ideal balance between the bustling energy of his early works and the mature sense of design exhibited here for the first time. The plotline is pierced by an unsettling exposé of the treatment inflicted on Victorian children and this is buttressed by poignant statements about the terrors and torments of youth coming of age most of which apply in any era and successfully concluding his quest the novel ends with a glimpse of the grown man. Dickens began to write it as pure autobiography but he found the naked facts too personal accordingly many of the events are drawn from his personal experiences but many more are fictionalized from his keen reconnaissance of life. However Micawber can be no other than Dickens' father and there is no doubt that David Copperfield is Dickens himself. And knowing that he had laid the needle against the redline pin on the great-ometer he openly stated more than once that Copperfield was his favorite from among all his books.
