A review by krish_
Pamela: Or, Virtue Rewarded by Samuel Richardson

2.0

I read this a few years ago so my memory of the story is a bit hazy...but, if I concentrate really hard, I do remember, faintly, wanting to bash my head in while deriving whatever pleasure I could in imagining hitting Pamela in the face with a bat jutted with razor blades...I don't know, like I said, it was a while ago.

This book is mostly about a young girl who faints, throws herself in agony upon the feet of one Mr. B, exclaims "I am unworthy!" every two pages all the while trying to escape sexual harassment.

Its called Pamela: Or, Virtue Rewarded and Richardson does indeed reward his young, naive but oh so stalwart protagonist with a happy ending of a marriage to a wealthy nobleman - who is also an almost rapist and a convicted abductor.

This girl has no idea...
