Evelina: Or the History of a Young Lady's Entrance Into the World by Frances Burney

5.0

Absolutely Hilarious!

It is hard to imagine though how such a 'perfect' gentleman as Lord Orville exists! Even Mr. Darcy & Mr. Thornton have their faults. In any case, this does not detract from the sighs & swoonings.

Evelina herself is all goodness and whilst, innocent & quite naive and therefore all the funnier are her adventures! The variety of characters surrounding her are astounding from their goodness to the most ridiculous ones. Thoroughly enjoyed this scope of society.
