Book # 87 - Tom Jones by Henry Fielding

31204

Going into Tom Jones I didn't really expect too much. I saw the movie almost thirty years ago and remember nothing at all about it. Maybe I just expected a book from the 1740's to be a bit boring. Anyway, it turned out to be quite funny and very much a page turner. It was certainly influenced by Don Quixote which it even name-checks. Except for some spelling it doesn't read like a book that his 270 years old. Easily an A.
