Synopsis "David Copperfield (in Spanish)"

«Nadie pondrá en duda que soy un padre afectuoso con todos los hijos de mi imaginación, y que ningún otro progenitor puede querer a su familia con tanta ternura. Pero, como muchos padres afectuosos, tengo un hijo favorito en el fondo de mi corazón. Y su nombre es David Copperfield.»

Este reconocimiento de Dickens en el prólogo a la edición de 1867 de la novela tiene el valor de venir de su propio «padre». Pero, desde su publicación por entregas entre 1849 y 1850, David Copperfield no ha dejado más que una estela de admiración, alegría y gratitud. Para Swinburne era «una obra maestra suprema». Henry James recordaba que de niño se escondía debajo de una mesa para oír a su madre leer las entregas en voz alta. Dostoievski la leyó en su prisión en Siberia. Tólstoi la consideraba el mayor hallazgo de Dickens, y el capítulo de la tempestad, el patrón por el que debería juzgarse toda obra de ficción. Fue la novela favorita de Sigmund Freud. Kafka la imitó en Amerika, y Joyce la parodió en el Ulises. Para Cesare Pavese, en estas «páginas inolvidables cada uno de nosotros (no se me ocurre elogio mayor) vuelve a encontrar su propia experiencia secreta».

El lector tiene ahora la ocasión de recuperar esa experiencia secreta gracias a la nueva y excelente traducción íntegra de Marta Salís, la primera en español en más de cincuenta años de una obra de la que, sin ningún género de duda, cabe afirmar que es clave en la literatura universal.

Charles Dickens (February 7, 1812 - June 9, 1870) was born in Portsmouth and was the eldest son of a Royal Navy clerk. At twelve, his father's imprisonment for debt forced him to work in a blacking factory. His education was sporadic: he taught himself shorthand, worked as a clerk in a law office, and eventually became a parliamentary correspondent for the Morning Chronicle.

Coming from a humble family, "good old Charles" did not receive formal education until he was nine, and was heavily criticized by the critics of the time for being too self-taught. His life took an unexpected turn with his father's imprisonment for debts, moving his family to live with him in jail, allowed at that time by British laws. At the age of 12, he was already considered fit to start working in a dye factory. Although his family's situation had improved, his mother insisted he keep working there, inspiring him to write one of his masterpieces, David Copperfield.

His articles, later collected in Scenes from London Life by "Boz" (1836-1837), were very successful, and with the appearance in 1837 of The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, Dickens became a true publishing phenomenon. Novels such as Oliver Twist (1837-1839), Nicholas Nickleby (1838-1839), and Barnaby Rudge (1841) gained enormous popularity, as did some travel chronicles, such as Pictures from Italy (1846). With Dombey and Son (1846-1848) he began his mature period, of which good examples are David Copperfield (1849-1850), his first novel in the first person and his favorite, in which he developed some autobiographical episodes; Bleak House (1852-1853); Little Dorrit (1855-1857), A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1860-1861), and Our Mutual Friend (1864-1865). He died at Gad's Hill, his country house in Higham, in the county of Kent.

El libro llegó antes del tiempo estimado por lo que los felicito, pero llegó un poco maltratado tan en el lomo como en las esquinas por lo que deberían darle mejor envoltura porque los títulos son un poco costosos.

La portada no es la misma que en la foto pero sí la editorial y es en tapa dura como indica. Hermosa edición.

El libro es una belleza de lectura, sin embargo esta edición no me gusto, las hojas son muy delgadas y se transparenta las letras de atrás y es cansado leerlo, muy caro y mal hecho
