Joseph Andrews refuses Lady Booby’s advances, she discharges him, and Joseph and his old tutor, Parson Adams (one of the great comic figures of literature), set off to visit his sweetheart, Fanny. Along the way, they meet with a series of adventures in which, through their own innocence and honesty, they expose the hypocrisy and affectation of others.
