 | The Vicar of Wakefield by Arthur Friedman, Oliver Goldsmith, Stephen Coote, Walter Zimmerman
Parson Primrose and his wife, Deborah, must manage the lives of their children--scholars George and Moses, the attractive and sensual Olivia and Sophia, as well as two younger sons. Betrothals, betrayals, loss and gain of fortune, catastrophe, vanity, pretension, and providence pepper this novel that Henry James called the spoiled child of our literature. Originally perceived as a sentimental pastoral account, it is now regarded as a satire on that very type of novel. AUTHOR: Arthur Friedman, Oliver Goldsmith, Stephen Coote, Walter Zimmerman
