About This Item
Heron Books, London, 1967. Leatherette. Near Fine. Leatherette. 2-volume set (complete). *** PUBLISHING DETAILS: Heron Books, London, 1967. *** CONDITION: This book is in near fine condition. *** ABOUT THIS BOOK: Tom Jones is a foundling discovered on the property of a very kind, wealthy landowner, Squire Allworthy, in Somerset in England's West Country. Tom grows into a vigorous and lusty, yet honest and kind-hearted, youth. He develops affection for his neighbour's daughter, Sophia Western. On one hand, their love reflects the romantic comedy genre that was popular in 18th-century Britain. However, Tom's status as a bastard causes Sophia's father and Allworthy to oppose their love; this criticism of class friction in society acted as a biting social commentary. *** Quantity Available: 1.
