It is the story of a young girl called Clorinda Wildairs who is brought up by her brutish father. Without any female guidance, she becomes influenced by her father s servants, who teach her how to swear and drink from an early age. When she realises that her only way to escape is to marry someone above her position, Clorinda endeavours to improve herself.
