| Summary | "Samantha among the Brethren — Volume 4" by Marietta Holley is a humorous novel written during the late 19th century (Victorian era). The book is a continuation of the adventures of Samantha, a woman who offers her witty observations on society, religion, and human nature. The narrative targets themes of religious fervor and societal conventions, employing satire to explore the behaviors and beliefs of its characters. In this volume, Samantha navigates various interactions with members of her community as they prepare for what they believe is the imminent end of the world. The storyline introduces characters such as Trueman's wife and Joe Charnick, highlighting their eccentric beliefs and community dynamics. As excitement builds toward the predicted apocalypse, Samantha juxtaposes her practical approach to life with the more dramatic responses of those around her. Through humorous anecdotes and light-hearted commentary, Holley portrays the absurdity of blind faith and the complexities of human relationships, culminating in a comical climax where the anticipated doomsday fails to occur, leaving the characters to reconcile their expectations with reality.
