Über diesen Titel

Fanny Burney's wickedly funny satire follows the trials and romantic adventures of the young and beautiful Evelina as she tries to make her way through 18th-century Britain handicapped by her three great problems: being poor, being illegitimate - and being a girl.

Evelina was a raging best seller when it was first published in 1778 and is widely credited with being the first of the great British domestic novels. Burney was a direct influence on her immediate follower, Jane Austen, who used some of the final lines from Burney’s novel Cecilia for one of her own fairly successful novels: "...if to pride and prejudice you owe your miseries...to pride and prejudice you will also owe their termination".

Great read for an early (pre-1800) novel. While at times a little too dramatic or moralising for my taste, one can detect the inspiration this story was for our favourite - Jane Austen. The excellent narrators make it even more precious.

Fantastic narrators, nice story
