Description

The unending misfortunes of poor Mr. Primrose are the subject of this charming, ironic comedy of manners. Primrose is a simple village vicar who leads a quiet, tranquil life with his wife and 6 children until a series of unexpected crises threaten the family's wealth and harmony. The more Primrose assures his innocent family not to worry, the faster they fall victim to new, improbable calamities. Oliver Goldsmith's classic comedy of manners earned instant acclaim upon its publication in 1766 and continues to delight readers to this day.
