Details

This touching and frequently hilarious tale of innocent optimism and courage beset by malice, deception and seduction has remained one of the most popular works in the English language. The Reverend Charles Primrose preaches monogamy and fertility and practices both, producing a large and handsome family. Believing nothing but good of his fellow man, he is buffeted and betrayed by others, losing his wealth, his family, his home and (almost) his faith until, in the depths of despair and imprisonment, the tables are turned and all is restored.
