Description
Barchester Towers (1857) was the book that made Trollope's reputation and it remains his most popular and enjoyable novel. The arrival of a new bishop in Barchester, accompanied by his formidable wife and ambitious chaplain, Obadiah Slope, sets the town in turmoil as Archdeacon Grantly declares "War, war, internecine war!" on Bishop Proudie and his supporters. Who will come out on top in the battle between the archdeacon, the bishop, Mr. Slope, and Mrs. Proudie? The livelihood of Mr. Harding, the saintly hero of The Warden, is once more under threat but clerical warfare finds itself tangled up in the wayward (and sometimes perverse) desires of the many courtships, seductions, and romances of the book. Who will marry Eleanor Bold? Can any man resist the charms of the exotically beautiful "La Signora Madeline Vesey Neroni"? Will the oily Mr. Slope finally get his comeuppance? Trollope's matchless handling of plot and character displays a skill whose distinctive literary qualities are celebrated in this new edition. - Back cover.
