Summary
From bestselling author and international sensation Paulo Coelho, a novel set in a small village about a young, poor barmaid whose wager with the devil leads to a spiritual transformation.

A stranger arrives at the remote village of Viscos, carrying with him a backpack containing a notebook and eleven gold bars. He comes searching for the answer to a question that torments him: Are human beings, in essence, good or evil? In welcoming the mysterious foreigner, the whole village becomes an accomplice to his sophisticated plot, which will forever mark their lives.

A novel of temptation, The Devil and Miss Prym is a thought-provoking parable of a community devoured by greed, cowardice, and fear—as it struggles with the choice between good and evil.

There is a beautiful, and incredibly deep message within the story of this book.

There is a beautiful simplicity to this tale yet the author delves deep into his character's thoughts and reasoning skills. He paints such a realistic picture of the village of Viscos- seemingly unaffected and humble....and then gently poses the question of how/why evil gets justified by greed and fear.
