Fanny Burney is an English author of novels and plays. Her book Evelina, Or, the History of a Young Lady's Entrance into the World is one of her works. The narrative follows Evelina, the main heroine, as she negotiates the difficulties and social complexity of affluent society in 18th-century England.

A young woman named Evelina, who is unrecognized and orphaned, is brought to London's aristocratic society. She comes across a variety of personalities, each of whom represents distinct socioeconomic strata and moral perspectives.
