About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Clarissa Harlowe or the History of a Young Lady - Volume 8 by Samuel Richardson. Read in English by Nicole Lee In Volume 8 Clarissa continues to decline towards her pitiful end, while Lovelace remains defiant, even as his nemesis Colonel Morden finally arrives his town. One of the earliest and certainly the longest novel in the English language, with a wide-ranging influence not only on the English novel, but also on nineteenth century European literature at large, it is gripping, twisted and a magnificent dramatic soap opera. - Summary by Nicole Lee
