Description

Evelina is a country girl who comes to the big city and makes every possible faux pas. Along the way she faces near incest, a bitch of a grandmother, other embarrassing relatives, near rape, clinging prostitutes, and a mischievous monkey. Evelina learns how to navigate the complex layers of 18th century society and earn the love of a distinguished nobleman.
