Publisher's Synopsis
Tales of the Vicarage, written by A. Selwyn and originally published in 1824, is a collection of short stories set in rural England. The tales revolve around the lives of various characters, including the local vicar, his family, and the members of his congregation. Each story is a self-contained narrative, but they are all connected by their setting and characters. The stories explore themes such as love, faith, and morality, and are written in a style that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. Some of the tales are humorous, while others are more serious, but all are imbued with a sense of warmth and humanity. Throughout the book, Selwyn paints a vivid picture of life in a small English village in the early 19th century. He captures the rhythms of daily life, the beauty of the natural surroundings, and the quirks and foibles of the people who inhabit the village.
