This classic novel tells the story, in letters, of the beautiful
and virtuous Clarissa Harlowe's pursuit by the brilliant,
unscrupulous rake Robert Lovelace. The epistolary structure allows
Richardson to create layered and fully realized characters, as well
as an intriguing uncertainty about the reliability of the various
"narrators." Clarissa emerges as a heroine at once rational and
passionate, self-sacrificing and defiant, and her story has gripped
readers since the novel's first publication in 1747-1748. This new
abridgment is designed to retain the novel's rich characterizations
and relationships, and reproduces individual letters in their
entirety whenever possible. This Broadview Edition provides a
uniquely accessible entry point for readers, while retaining much
of the powerful reading experience of the complete novel.
