Clarissa : Or the History of a Young Lady (Penguin Classics)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Written entirely in letters, this novel conveys the nuances and tensions only present in personal epistolary form. The virtuous but self-deceiving Clarissa and the charming villain Lovelace haunt the imagination as fully as Romeo and Juliet or Tristan and Isolde.

I told him, he might be assur'd, that the severity and ill-esage I met with would be far from effecting the intended end: That altho' I could, with great sincerity, declare for a Single Life, which had always been my choice; and particularly, that if ever I marry'd, if they would not insist upon the man I had an aversion to, it should not be with the man they disliked.
