Fanny Burney 
Evelina 
Or, the History of a Young Lady’s Entrance into the World

Even in the highly stratified social hierarchy of eighteenth-century England, it was possible for an outcast to rise through the ranks and find true love amongst the affluent upper classes. That’s exactly what Evelina, the plucky illegitimate daughter of a prominent aristocrat, is able to accomplish. This funny feel-good novel is sure to please fans of Jane Austen and the Bronte sisters.
