Richardson's novel is among the first English novels to explore the inner depths of human psychology. Told in a series of letters, his classic tale of a virginal serving maid pursued by her employer deals with matters that were unexplored when it was written in 1740 such as the perversion of sexual allure into power and a lower-class girl setting a value on herself and working for her living.
