Synopsis of The Stone of Chastity
El profesor Pounce llega al idílico pueblo de Gillenham con un objetivo científico singular: encontrar la Piedra de la Castidad, un peldaño en un arroyo local que, según la leyenda, hace tropezar a las mujeres impuras. Sus investigaciones, que incluyen poner a prueba a las mujeres del pueblo y documentar los resultados, provocan la indignación de los habitantes, desde la esposa del vicario hasta la severa señora Pye, quien posee el alma de una inquisidora. Publicada originalmente en 1940, esta obra es una de las comedias sociales más ingeniosas de Margery Sharp. A través de una narrativa vibrante y llena de humor, la autora retrata el caos rural y las repercusiones de los impulsos amorosos en una comunidad que se resiste a los fríos experimentos del profesor.
