The story delicately balances the concerns of the Mellstock parish choir with a romance between Dick Dewy, a member of the choir, and Fancy Day, the village schoolmistress. While the choir battles for its survival against the new vicar's mechanical church organ, personal conflicts arise over the anachronistic customs of tradition.

Thankfully the story compliments this reading, as it is light, and filled with general wisdoms and situations.
I might re-listen to this book, simply because it is so pleasant. At times reminiscent of J. R. R. Tolkein's Shire.
I have a problem with the narrator.
