Book Overview

Almost Persuaded: A Tale Of Village Life is a novel written by A Clergyman's Wife and originally published in 1856. The story takes place in a small English village and follows the lives of its inhabitants, particularly two young women named Mary and Anne. Mary is a devout Christian who is determined to live a virtuous life, while Anne is more worldly and enjoys the pleasures of life. The two women become friends, but their different values and beliefs cause tension between them. As the story progresses, Mary falls in love with a young man named Edward, but their relationship is threatened by Anne's interference. Anne tries to persuade Mary to abandon her faith and embrace a more hedonistic lifestyle, but Mary remains steadfast in her beliefs. The novel explores themes of faith, temptation, and the struggle between worldly pleasures and spiritual fulfillment. Ultimately, Almost Persuaded: A Tale Of Village Life is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a window into the social and moral values of Victorian England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
