The book reminded me of Job. Primrose loses almost everything but keeps on in simple faith, and in the end, everything is restored and several sinners have been made to see the light. It is comical the way everything worked out so neatly in the end, and it almost had me giggling with glee in spite of the corn. The book can almost be read on two levels, as a morality play and as a comedy. Primrose is so naive, but in the end his constant faith stands him in good stead. It wasn't a terribly memorable book, but it was a pleasure while it lasted.
