So, you think you've read everything Trollope has to offer...
A Male, Victorian Version of Austen's Emma
A MUST FOR TROLLOPE FANS "THE CLAVERINGS" MAIN PLOT CONCERNS A YOUNG WOMAN WHO GIVES UP THE MAN SHE LOVES - AND WHO LOVES HER - TO MARRY AN OLD, VERY RICH, UPPER CLASS GENTLEMAN. THE MARRIAGE IS A MISERABLE FAILURE, BUT LUCKILY THE OLD GENTLEMAN DIES, LEAVING ALL OF HIS FORTUNE AND PROPERTY TO HIS YOUNG WIFE. IN THIS MARRIAGE, THE WIFE'S REPUTATION IS ALSO SULLIED BY RUMORS THAT SHE IS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH ANOTHER MAN. WHEN THE YOUNG WOMAN FINDS HERSELF A WEALTHY WIDOW, SHE DISCOVERS THAT SHE IS UNABLE TO ENJOY HER WEALTH AND TITLE DUE TO THE SLANDEROUS RUMORS THAT BESMIRCH HER CHARACTER. HER WEALTH BRINGS HER NO JOY AS SHE IS ALONE AND SOCIALLY RUINED. SHE THUS BEGINS A CAMPAIGN TO WIN BACK HER FIRST LOVE WHOM SHE WISHES TO SHOWER WITH HER RICHES.PERHAPS THEN SHE WILL FIND HAPPINESS AND RESTORE HER TARNISHED REPUTATION. IN THE MEANTIME, HER YOUNG MAN WHO TRULY LOVED HER HAS BECOME ENGAGED TO ANOTHER FAR LESS HANDSOME AND QUITE POOR WOMAN. THE MAIN ACTION OF THE BOOK REVOLVES AROUND THE RELATIONSHIP THAT DEVELOPS BETWEEN THE ENGAGED YOUNG MAN WHO CANNOT TELL HIS PAST LOVE THAT HE IS NOW ENGAGED, AND THE NEWLY WIDOWED WOMEN WHO IS UNAWARE OF HIS ENGAGEMENT AND ATTEMPTING TO WIN HIM BACK. AS IN ALL OF TROLLOPE'S BOOKS, THERE ARE MANY SIDE PLOTS THAT ARE EQUALLY AS PSYCHOLOGICALLY INTERESTING. ANTHONY TROLLOP DELVES INTO THE PSYCHOLOGY OF ALL HIS CHARACTERS. IT IS NOT AN 'ACTION' BOOK BUT A STUDY OF LOVE AND GREED AND THEIR CONSEQUENCES. I IMMENSELY ENJOYED THIS BOOK.

Trollope is Trollope
Castle User-Unfriendly
TROLLOPE FANS - DON'T OVERLOOK THIS ONE! THIS IS THE TALE OF 2 MEN IN LOVE WITH THE SAME WOMAN. THE FORTUNES OF THESE 2 MEN CONSTANTLY SHIFT THROUGHOUT THE STORY DUE TO A FAMILY INHERITANCE QUESTION -WHICH FORMS THE CENTRAL MYSTERY OF THE BOOK. AND AS THEIR FORTUNES CHANGE, THE MOTHER OF THE WOMAN WHOM BOTH LOVE, CONTINUES TO INTEFEREAND ATTEMPT TO SELL HER DAUGHTER'S HEART TO THE RICHEST BIDDER. I'VE READ A LOT OF TROLLOPE, AND I WOULD RATE THIS ONE OF HIS FINEST. THE ONLY PART OF THE BOOK THAT I FOUND NOT THAT INTERESTING, WAS THE HISTORY PERTAINING TO THE GREAT IRISH FAMINE.NEVERTHELESS, IF YOU LIKE TROLLOPE, DO READ THIS ONE!
Trollope's Romance in Ireland Castle Richmond isTrollope's romance in Ireland set against the backdrop of the Great Famine. You might wonder if the famine sequences get in the way of the main plot. I certainly thought so myself until I read a brilliantly written chaptertwo-thirds of the way through the book in which one of the heroes of thestory encounters a starving mother and her children.In five paragraphsthe book takes on a whole new prespective.Suddenly our hero (andourselves) become aware that happiness is a relative thing, not somethingthat should be dictated by those we love and how much are in our purses. What an enlightening concept!Anyone who thinks that Trollope is out-datedneed only focus on what he is saying in Castle Richmond to see what a trulymodern thinker he really was. Castle Richmond's main plot is a look attwo upper class families: the Desmonds and the Fitzgeralds.We follow themthrough their lives, watching as love is gained and love is lost.We get acomplete glimpse into the morals of these people; people who really feelthey are doing right no matter who is hurt.I was amazed that themelancholy scenes were almost better written then the happy ones.Andthere are very few writers of that age and ours that write better dialoguethan he. I hope readers who have read Trollope's more popular works willtake the time to read this novel.Trollope obviously loved Irelandimmensely, and he need not apologize for setting his story in that country. The land, the people, the circumstances are completely displayed for us toenjoy.It is a comfort to walk in his world, through the path between theelms, through the hilly countryside.I thought more then once that I wouldgo there like a shot if it was offered to me.And that, I believe, is thetrue magic of Trollope's work. ...

Phineas Finn the intriguing Irish MP returns to London in a fine sequel to :Phineas Finn
A Darker Phineas Finn
Spinning his wheels So what we get here is Trollope's _Merry Wives of Windsor_. The plot trundles along through a minutely reported debate between Liberals and Conservatives upon the disestablishment of the church, followed by a very run-of-the-mill murder trial that pales in comparison to just about any one of John Mortimer's Rumpole stories. One gets the sense that Trollope is marking time, here. Nonetheless, there are some wonderful character sketches sandwiched inbetween the long passages of reportage, and it's a fairly quick read. The Palliser completist should approach it with only mild apprehensiveness, not outright dread.
Five Stars On Any Other Scale
Good sequel to "Phineas Finn." |

Dr. Wortle's School is a minor masterpiece by the prolific Anthony Trollope
Really good read
A moral dilemma Trollope introduces a note of levity to the story with a side plot concerning the love between Dr. Wortle's daughter Mary and young Lord Carstairs, a student at the school. Trollope also takes some interesting potshots at America, particularly the lawlessness and licentiousness of the American West. A good introduction and footnotes to the novel provide background information on Trollope's ideas and personal life, and how they are reflected in the story. If you are hesitant to try a novel by Trollope, this would be a good one to start with.
A Trollope Treat The joy ofthe novel is watching Dr. Wortle deal with these crises.Will he stand byMr. Peacocke in his time of need?Will he allow his daughter to becomeengaged to the very young Lord Carstairs?The answers to these questionsand the reactions of the other characters are handled in the typicalTrollope fashion, with compassion and common sense.Sprinkle the wholething with deft strokes of humor and you have what is Dr. Wortle'sSchool. As I mentioned in my review of Castle Richmond, I am amazed whata modern thinker Trollope was.His reputation as a"old-fashioned" author is entirely undeserved.In a day and age(late 1870s)when actions and image were everything, where a hint of scandalcould ruin a person, it must have seemed radical to stress that personsshould be judged as much on their "nature" or character asanything else.This is one of those general notions that could be appliedjust as well in 2000 as in 1878. You might wonder, given what I havealready said, why I give Dr. Wortle's School four stars.When you comparethem to his towering Last Chronicle of Barset, Orley Farm and The Way WeLive Now, it seems a slight injustice to those five star books to give allthe others five stars.Dr. Wortle's School is very readable certainly, butit does not quite obtain the status of "masterpiece" that theseother novels can claim.As always, Trollop's humor, dialogue, andcharacterizations make this an enjoyable novel that can be recommeded toanyone.
A well-balanced portrait of compassion and forgiveness |
