Sir Charles Grandison or The Happy Man (annotated) - Paperback

Of Sir Charles Grandison or The Happy Man by Jane Austen, 20th century literary critic Carol Flynn characterises Sir Charles Grandison as a "man of feeling who truly cannot be said to feel". Flynn claims that Grandison is filled with sexual passions that never come to light, and he represents a perfect moral character in regards to respecting others. Unlike Richardson's previous novel Clarissa, there is an emphasis on society and how moral characteristics are viewed by the public.
