This novel, based on Milne's successful play of the same title, is a gentle comedy in the style of George Bernard Shaw. In "Mr Pim Passes By," the fumbling Pim inadvertently turns the Marden household upside down, setting in motion a farcical chain of events involving marriage, willingness to change, and the very definition of morality. Milne remains best known for his Winnie-the-Pooh stories, although he was quite successful as a playwright, fiction writer, and humorist. |
