Can I believe a young Fellow of your Age and Complexion will be content with Kissing?/b>br>br>b>Joseph Andrews/b>, Henry Fieldings first full-length novel, depicts the many colourful and often hilarious adventures of a comically chaste servant. After being sacked for spurning the lascivious Lady Booby, Joseph takes to the road, accompanied by his beloved Fanny Goodwill, a much-put-upon foundling girl, and Parson Adams, a man often duped and humiliated, but still a model of Christian charity. In the boisterous short tale b>Shamela/b>, a brilliant parody of Richardsons b>Pamela/b>, the spirited and sexually honest heroine uses coyness and mock modesty to catch herself a rich husband. Together these works anticipate Fieldings great comic epic b>Tom Jones/b>, with their amiable good humour and pointed social satire.br>br>Judith Hawleys introduction compares the works of Fielding and Richardson, and discusses sex and class relations, and the literary and political world of the time. This volume also includes a chronology and suggestions for further reading.br>br>For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
