Description
Both a picaresque and Bildungsroman, The History of Tom Jones follows the life of its hero from his discovery as a foundling on the property of Squire Allworthy in England's West Country to his banishment from the estate and subsequent journey to London to escape an arranged marriage. Tom's many dalliances and misadventures throughout add to the charm of this bawdy romantic comedy.
