I just loved Barchester Towers and I really do want to read the whole series. Must put this one on the TBR list as well.

He's not daunting at all, even though some of his books are huge. Once you get into them they're very easy reading.lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04509400868331534237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020849054403226268.post-14800102225529286072011-10-21T02:48:56.870+11:002011-10-21T02:48:56.870+11:00Another one to add to my TBR list, but not for awh...Another one to add to my TBR list, but not for awhile yet. Not until I make myself more familiar with Trollope. To that end I am currently reading (in between two other books - not the fastest way to read, but it's my way), CAN YOU FORGIVE HER?<br /><br />It was sent to me by my late friend, Rochelle, who was a Trollope groupie. :)<br /><br />She was a member of a Trollope association even traveled to England for one of their meetings.<br /><br />She sent me a couple of his books and I bought another. They seem daunting, but upon reading, they really aren't.<br /><br />Loved your review, Lyn.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020849054403226268.post-74989108142459203552011-10-20T20:06:07.544+11:002011-10-20T20:06:07.544+11:00Thank you Lisa May.

Trollope is one my favorite writers, and I also found this book fascinating - especially his frank evaluation of his fellow writers - and unexpectedly touching. I was very surprised to read about his miserable childhood. It seems to me that Dickens traded a bit on his, where Trollope's readers might never have known about his.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782561487396697870noreply@blogger.com
