Fieldings hilarious and disturbing story of two innocents abroad in a world of vice and hypocrisy Joseph, footboy to the Booby household, virtuously rejects the advances of his newly widowed employer Lady Booby, and is then thrown onto the streets. Accompanied by the honest but incompetent Parson Adams, he begins a comic odyssey that brings him face to face with robbery, poverty, sexual viciousness, and all the hypocrisy of fashionable (and not so fashionable) eighteenth-century life.

Henry Fielding was born in Somerset in 1707. The son of an army lieutenant and a judges daughter, he was educated at Eton School and the University of Leiden before returning to England where he wrote a series of farces, operas and light comedies.
Fielding formed his own company and was running the Little Theatre, Haymarket, when one of his satirical plays began to upset the government. The passing of the Theatrical Licensing Act in 1737 effectively ended Fieldings career as a playwright.
In 1739 Fielding turned to journalism and became editor of The Champion. He also began writing novels, including: The Adventures of Joseph Andrews (1742), Abraham Adams (1742) and Jonathan Wild (1743).
Fielding was made a justice of the peace for Westminster and Middlesex in 1748. He campaigned against legal corruption and helped his half-brother, Sir John Fielding, establish the Bow Street Runners.
In 1749 Fieldings novel, The History of Tom Jones was published to public acclaim. Critics agree that it is one of the greatest comic novels in the English language. Fielding followed this success with another well received novel, Amelia (1751).
Fielding continued as a journalist and his satirical journal, Covent Garden, continued to upset those in power. Throughout his life, Fielding suffered from poor health and by 1752 he could not move without the help of crutches. In an attempt to overcome his health problems, Henry Fielding went to live in Portugal but this was not successful and he died in Lisbon in 1754.
