Industry Reviews
"...'Tom Jones,' which was published in 1749, is the second great novel. The first, Richarson's 'Clarissa Harlowe,' preceded it by only a year....The truth is that there are few works of art so perfectly made, so perfectly of their period, yet possessing the energy and high spirits and good humor to transcend it....In this book Fielding combined the epic and the dramatic, thereby creating the dominant literary form of our time, even if we no longer call it the 'prosai-comi-epic,' but simply the 'novel.'"
Afterword - Frank Kermode

"Two hundred years have not dimmed Fielding's realism. His humor is closer to our own than that of any writer before the present century."
Book Jacket - Kingsley Amis

"What a master of composition Fielding was! Upon my word, I think the OEDIPUS TYRANNUS, the ALCHEMIST, and TOM JONES the three most perfect plots ever planned."
Coleridge

"[O]ne of the most tedious books (to me) that I ever read in my life."
Collins
