Description

A hired room above a shop. Hear Clarissa refuse Lovelace from Covent Garden, refuse Lord M.’s gold, refuse a reconciliation that would make the story neat. Volume 7 of the letters, unabridged: the Smiths, Belford learning how to be of use, Arabella’s hardness, a doctor in a poor street. Listen to a will beginning in the voice before it reaches paper. She will see him if seeing him is the price of being left alone. She will not be his wife.

Author

Samuel Richardson (1689–1761) wrote Pamela and Clarissa, vast epistolary novels of virtue under siege. The English novel learned inwardness, and length, from him.
