About the book

This collection brings together the major fiction of Henry Fielding, one of the most important English novelists of the eighteenth century. Fielding combines energetic storytelling, satire and memorable characters with sharp observations about morality, class and human weakness. His novels helped shape the development of English comic fiction, using adventurous plots and an engaging narrative voice to expose hypocrisy while maintaining a generous understanding of imperfect human nature.
