The story tells about Tom, the titular hero of the story,who is a boy found in Mr. Allworthy’s house and brought up there with the kind old man’s nephew Blifil. The latter, a hypocritical, wrecked man, is envious of Mr. Allworthy’s fondness for the foundling and of Tom’s intimacy with the beautiful Sophia, daughter of the well-off squire Western.
