Two of Henry Fielding's shorter works sit side by side in this volume: the satirical fantasy A Journey from This World to the Next and The Journal of a Voyage to Lisbon, the clear-eyed diary of his final voyage.
Henry Fielding (1707-1754), the great English novelist and magistrate, turns in the Journey to a witty satirical fable of souls passing into the afterlife, while the Voyage to Lisbon is the moving, clear-eyed journal of his last voyage in search of failing health.
Together they show Fielding's range, from comic invention to unflinching memoir, in a handsome modern edition for readers of the eighteenth-century classics.
