re: the point about historical context being helpful is true if one has time to pursue it.
So important! Good to know. I'm a literature student and your advice has just been jotted down :)
You're a better man than I, Shaun.Fortunate Mistress, by Daniel Defoe.
The full title of which is: Roxana: The Fortunate Mistress: Or, a History of the Life and Vast Variety of Fortunes of Mademoiselle de Beleau, Afterwards Called the Countess de Wintselsheim in Germany, Being the Person Known by the Name of the Lady Roxana in the Time of Charles II.

Nearing the end of your reading you're likely to be asking yourself what to take on next. Myself, I prefer a smooth, uninterrupted transition so a concrete choice must be in place..."
Excellent advice Shaun!
