Description

Dive into the brilliance of Anthony Trollope with Orley Farm, a masterclass in character development that rivals the renowned Barsetshire series. Here, youll meet a vivid cast of characters such as the tormented Lady Mason, accused of forging a will; the devoted yet elderly Sir Peregrine Orme; the practical yet deeply affectionate Madeleine Stavely; and the capricious Sophia Furnival, among others. Trollope’s portrayal of these three-dimensional figures truly brings them to life. His sharp, insightful satire of the judicial system resonates powerfully, revealing court proceedings that feel as contemporary as today’s headlines. (Introduction by Leonard Wilson)
