About this listen

Dive into a captivating tale of love and adventure with Fortunate Foundlings, where the lives of twins Horatio and Louisa take unexpected turns as they navigate a world filled with challenges and intrigue. Abandoned in their infancy and adopted by a wealthy bachelor, the spirited siblings must break free from his protection to forge their own paths. Plucky Louisa is determined to defend her virtue in a male-dominated society, while her bold brother seeks fortune on the battlefield. This energetic narrative sweeps through bustling cities, royal courts, and even the quiet confines of a convent, spanning various European landscapes. Written in 1744 by the talented actress and author Eliza Haywood, this novel is an exhilarating ride—action-packed, passionate, melodramatic, and unapologetically sentimental. - Summary by Helen Taylor
