Description
The plot of Oliver Goldsmith’s only novel, published in 1766, unfolds in the countryside of one of England’s counties. Against the backdrop of pastoral landscapes, there develops a life drama of the clergyman Primrose, who becomes a victim of a local landowner.
Oliver Goldsmith’s Enlightenment-era novel, prose writer, poet, playwright, publicist, and historian, "The Vicar of Wakefield"—since its first publication in 1766—won readers’ popularity and was later reprinted numerous times and translated into many languages.
Told in the first person through Primrose’s everyday life story, the hero-narrator’s overly pathetic tone is repeatedly softened by the author’s gentle, good-natured humor, which colors many of the novel’s plot situations.
