In this novel, Evelina, the title character, is the unacknowledged daughter of a dissipated English aristocrat. Her dubious birth has seen her raised in rural seclusion until her eighteenth year. Through a series of humorous events that take place in London and the resort town of Bristol-Hotwells, Evelina learns how to navigate the complex layers of 18th century society and earn the love of a distinguished nobleman. This sentimental novel of manners often satirizes the society in which it is set and is a significant precursor to later works by Jane Austen and Maria Edgeworth, whose novels explore many of the same issues.

Even in the highly stratified social hierarchy of eighteenth-century England, it was possible for an outcast to rise through the ranks and find true love amongst the affluent upper classes. That's exactly what Evelina, the plucky illegitimate daughter of a prominent aristocrat, is able to accomplish. This funny feel-good novel is sure to please fans of Jane Austen and the Bronte sisters.
