In one of the first novels in the English language, we follow the picaresque adventures of Joseph Andrews, a virtuous young man who is keen to maintain his innocence, despite being coerced into bed by nearly every woman he encounters.

Fielding is an expert satirist and through the many twists and turns of narration, he combines high and low literature with high and low humour to create a wittily funny novel that he aptly named a 'comic epic poem in prose'.
