About this listen

 In this timeless classic, first published in 1749, we delve into the captivating story of Tom Jones, a foundling raised by a kind-hearted squire. Amidst the backdrop of Somersetshire, two neighboring squires—one affable and generous, the other a fiery lover of the hunt and drink—embark on a comedic scheme to marry the formers nephew to the latters daughter, much to her dismay. For her heart belongs to Tom, whose charming yet reckless nature has led him into a series of misadventures, both real and perceived. With a cast of characters who fervently believe in their own righteousness, the author himself makes a lively appearance, offering witty commentary on the unfolding drama and other musings that spring to his mind. Join us for a rich exploration of love, folly, and the quirks of human nature in this enduring literary gem.
