Author
Description
"Thanks to the extraordinary storytelling gifts of Anthony Trollope, a tale of trifling power struggles among the clergy in a fictional cathedral town is transformed into a hilarious romp. One of the most popular of the prolific Victorian author's novels, Barchester Towers abounds in lively characterizations and ironic observations that combine comedy with keen social and psychological insights"-- Provided by publisher.
