Brian liked J.G. Keely's review of The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling:
The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling by Henry Fielding
"Who reads this and laughs not at all may be forgiven only as a simpleton, and does not comprehend.

Who reads this and laughs but a little is too dour and prideful to be of much use, and only laughs when he cannot help it.

Who reads this and laughs a score is the wretched false-wit, and only laughs when it suits his crowd.

Who reads and laughs but once a chapter has a mirthful soul, if no great love for words.

Who reads and laughs at every page shall be my boon companion, and a kiss for each grinning cheek.

Who reads and laughs at twice and thrice a page shall be my worthy better, and may they forgive my endless queries."

by F. Scott Fitzgerald

I read this a long time ago. I also remember thinking that it was not as good as Gatsby but it being very poignant. ]]>
