THE COMPLETE PALLISER NOVELS (All 6 Novels in One Edition) (ePub)

Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was an English novelist of the Victorian era, renowned for his prolific output and the depiction of the conflicting interests within society. His insightful observations of the British bourgeoisie and civil service made him an influential commentator as well as a famous author. Trollope's series 'The Chronicles of Barsetshire' is celebrated for its detailed exploration of the clergy and the gentry. However, it is his 'Palliser Novels' for which Trollope is arguably best remembered; they are an extraordinary achievement that allows readers an intimate look into the lives of politicians and aristocrats. The series, compiled in 'THE COMPLETE PALLISER NOVELS (All 6 Novels in One Edition)', consists of six novels including 'Can You Forgive Her?', 'Phineas Finn', and 'The Duke's Children'-each weaving a rich tapestry that examines the complexities of human nature and power within the social hierarchy. Trollope's narrative style is marked by his use of realism, detailed character development, and a subtle yet sharp satirical edge. He remains a key figure in English literature, his works often being studied for their social context and contribution to realist fiction. Scholars have credited Trollope with transforming the portrayal of women in literature, and his influence can be seen in the works of later authors who sought to give a voice to the various strata of Victorian society.
