January 7, 1999- Finishing of David Copperfield

I've finally finished reading David Copperfield by Charles Dickens, much to my extreme delight.  Truly, this has been a trying book, given it's extreme length and Dickens' ability to write characters that throroughly piss me off. That begin said, here's some favorites and annoyances.
 
 

	Best	Worst
Character	Agnes Wickfield	Dora and Uriah Heep
Woman Character	Pegotty	Emily
Male Character	Tommy Traddles & Mr.Dick	Mr.Micawber
Character out of touch with reality	Mr.Dick	Micawbers
Character not used often	Dora's Aunts (let's not throw in two more ecentric women!)	Miss Mowcher (bring back the midget!)
Dialect	David (none!)	Mr.Peggoty and UriahHeep
Relative of David's	Aunt Betsey Trotwood	Miss Murdstone
Trend	Characters with distinct oddities	Insane interweaving of characters
Revenge	Steerworth throwing a hammer at Miss Dartle	None!-I'm all for revenge! :)
Marriage	Tommy and Sophy	David and Dora
Death	Dora	Ham and Steerforth
