My dad lent this book to me as a quick read with a cute story. It was definitely a fast read, and the story was enjoyable if extremely silly. Goldsmith really enjoys writing about ridiculous people (see The Vicar of Wakefield).

What a play, what a time!

Arguably, it had some funny bits, but overall, I didn't find it that entertaining. Sorry Oliver Goldsmith!

Thanks to a friend who suggested this for my BOTNS Summer Bingo card - "From the Harvard Classics 5-foot shelf" This was a GREAT listen. It was humorous, funny and I enjoyed it thoroughly!
