Anthony Trollope Books Overview

The Warden

Should Septimus Harding leave his job as warden of Hiram’s Hospital? It seems a simple choice to make, but soon his family, friends, the people of the town and the church, and eventually the whole country are talking about it. ‘Penguin Readers’ is a series of simplified novels, film novelizations and original titles that introduce students at all levels to the pleasures of reading in English. Originally designed for teaching English as a foreign language, the series’ combination of high interest level and low reading age makes it suitable for both English-speaking teenagers with limited reading skills and students of English as a second language. Many titles in the series also provide access to the pre-20th century literature strands of the National Curriculum English Orders. ‘Penguin Readers’ are graded at seven levels of difficulty, from ‘Easystarts’ with a 200-word vocabulary, to Level 6 Advanced with a 3000-word vocabulary. In addition, titles fall into one of three sub-categories: ‘Contemporary’, ‘Classics’ or ‘Originals’. At the end of each book there is a section of enjoyable exercises focusing on vocabulary building, comprehension, discussion and writing. Some titles in the series are available with an accompanying audio cassette, or in a book and cassette pack. Additionally, selected titles have free accompanying ‘Penguin Readers Factsheets’ which provide stimulating exercise material for students, as well as suggestions for teachers on how to exploit the Readers in class.

Barchester Towers

Barchester Towers, by Anthony Trollope, is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of Barnes & Noble Classics: All editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences biographical, historical, and literary to enrich each reader’s understanding of these enduring works. The second and most popular of Trollope’s six Barsetshire novels, Barchester Towers chronicles the struggles for power and position in an imaginary county in Victorian England. Passions start seething when an ‘outsider,’ Dr. Proudie, is appointed bishop of Barchester. Soon, his ambitious, domineering wife and the smarmy, scheming curate, Mr. Slope, are hatching plots and counter plots as they try to control the choice of a new warden for Hiram s Hospital and a new husband for Eleanor, a lovely young widow and the daughter of the former warden, Mr. Harding. The novel combines the realism of later fiction including Trollope s own with such Victorian devices as Dickensian character names and a comically interruptive narrator. The narrator s sharply satiric comments enhance the story s richness, while his playful, reassuring, and mocking asides subvert the reader s expectations, giving the book an unexpectedly post modernist flavor. Ultimately, we see that Trollope s characters petty jealousies, selfishness, and meanness are not metaphors for larger issues, they are the issues the same human failings that, in other contexts, can lead to serious social strife and civil unrest. Edward Mendelson is Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University. He is W. H. Auden s literary executor and has written widely on nineteenth and twentieth century novels.

The Eustace Diamonds

The third in Trollope’s six volume Palliser series, The Eustace Diamonds boasts an extraordinary hero*ine in Lizzie Eustace, a lying schemer in the mould of Thackeray’s Becky Sharp. A pompous Under Secretary of State, an exploitative and acquisitive American and her unhappy ‘niece,’ a shady radical peer, and a brutal aristocrat are only some of the characters in this, one of Trollope’s most engaging novels: part sensation fiction, part detective story, part political satire, and part ironic romance. It is also a highly revealing study of Victorian Britain, its colonial activities in Ireland and India, its veneration of wealth, and its pervasive dishonesty. In her introduction, Helen Small explores the central themes of lying and truth telling, placing the novel within contemporary political and social debates. An invaluable appendix outlines the political context of the Palliser novels and establishes the internal chronology of the series and the relationship between fictional and actual political events, providing a unique understanding of the series as a linked narrative. In addition, the book includes a compact biography of Trollope and a wealth of explanatory notes. About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World’s Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.

The Prime Minister

Despite his mysterious antecedents, an unscrupulous financial speculator, Ferdinand Lopez, aspires to marry into respectability and wealth and join the ranks of British society. One of the nineteenth century’s most memorable outsiders, Lopez’s story is set against that of the ultimate insider, Plantagenet Palliser, Duke of Omnium, who reluctantly accepts the highest office of state, becoming ‘the greatest man in the greatest country in the world.’ The Prime Minister is the fifth in Trollope’s six volume Palliser series and a wonderfully subtle portrait of a marriage, political expediency, and misplaced love. Nicholas Shrimpton’s introduction explores the many strands of this complex novel, the role of the ‘outsider’ Ferdinand Lopez, and Trollope’s great skill in integrating the two themes of love and politics, the marriage of Palliser and Lady Glencora and that of Emily Wharton and Ferdinand Lopez. The book includes a compact biography of Trollope, a wealth of useful explanatory notes, and a valuable appendix which outlines the chronology of the Palliser novels, providing a unique understanding of the series as a linked narrative.

The Duke’s Children

A fitting conclusion to the Palliser novels, one of the most remarkable achievements in British fiction, The Duke’s Children is a touching story of love, family relationships, loyalty, and principles, following the aging Duke of Omnium as he struggles to come to terms with the loss of his vivacious wife, Lady Glencora, and the willfulness of his three children. The wide ranging introduction explores the implicit politics of the novel about the nature of conservatism and liberalism in all their facets; the ‘woman question’; autobiographical echoes; gambling; and the novel’s interest in modernity and the United States. The book also includes an invaluable appendix that outlines the political context of the Palliser novels and establishes the internal chronology of the series, providing a unique understanding of the six books as a linked narrative. The editors also provide explanatory notes, and the preface provides both a compact biography of Anthony Trollope and a Chronology charts his life against the major historical events of the period.

The Macdermots of Ballycloran

In the autumn, 184 , business took me into the ‘West of Ireland, and, amongst other places, to the quiet little village of Drumsna, which is in the provinco of Connaught, County Leitrira, about 72 miles w.k.w, of Dublin, on tho mail coach road to Sligo. I reached the little inn there in the morning by the said mail, my purpose being to leave it late in the evening by the day coach; and as my business was but of short duration, I was loft, after an early dinner, to amuse myself. Now, in such a situation, to take a walk is all tho brightest man can do, and the dullest always does the same. There is a kind of gratification in seeing what one has never seen before, be it ever so little worth seeing ; and the grati cation is tho greater if the chances be that one will never sec it again. Now Drumsna stands on a bend in the Shannon; the street leads down to a bridge, passing over which one finds onesolf in the County Itoscommon; and the road runs by the well wooded demesne of Sir G K

Orley Farm

The favorite self written work of the author, ‘Orley Farm‘ is a novel that revolves around the final will of Joseph Mason. While most of Mason’s property is left to the son from his first marriage, a codicil in his second wife’s handwriting bequeaths the small Orley Farm to his other son Lucius. When taken to court, the ruling favors the validity of the addition. Many years pass, and an array of characters are brought into the story who reveal the difficulties of love and life, from the marriages of the young, to the middle age struggles of others, particularly in the clever but sympathetic Lady Mason, and even in the losses of the elderly. Amidst the unfolding of these various characters’ choices, ordeals, and means of coping with each, the language of the law and its impact on their lives is masterfully portrayed by Trollope. Perhaps one of the earliest legal suspense novels, ‘Orley Farm‘ combines the sensational with the realistic to explore the morality of law.

He Knew He Was Right

Anthony Trollope 1815 1882 was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. He wrote penetrating novels on political, social, and gender issues and conflicts of his day. In 1867 Trollope left his position in the British Post Office to run for Parliament as a Liberal candidate in 1868. After he lost, he concentrated entirely on his literary career. While continuing to produce novels rapidly, he also edited the St Paul’s Magazine, which published several of his novels in serial form. His first major success came with The Warden 1855 the first of six novels set in the fictional county of Barsetshire. The comic masterpiece Barchester Towers 1857 has probably become the best known of these. Trollope’s popularity and critical success diminished in his later years, but he continued to write prolifically, and some of his later novels have acquired a good reputation. In particular, critics generally acknowledge the sweeping satire The Way We Live Now 1875 as his masterpiece. In all, Trollope wrote forty seven novels, as well as dozens of short stories and a few books on travel.

I Am disposed to believe that no novel reader in England has seen the little town of Bullhampton , in Wiltshire, except such novel Readers as live there, and those others, very few in number, who visit it perhaps four times a yoar for the purposes of trade, and who are known as commercial gentlemen. Bulhampton is seventeen miles from Salisbnry, eleven from. :Marlborollgh, nine from Westbury, seven from Haylesbury, and five from the nearest railroad station, which is called Bullhampton Road, and lies on the line from Silisbury to Yeovil.

Lady Anna

When it appeared in 1874, Lady Anna met with little success, and positively outraged the conservative This is the sort of thing the reading public will never stand…
a man must be embittered by some violent present exasperation who can like such disruptions of social order as this.’ Saturday Review although Trollope himself considered it the best novel I ever wrote! Very much! Quite far away above all others!!!’ This tightly constructed and passionate study of enforced marriage in the world of Radical politics and social inequality, records the lifelong attempt of Countess Lovel to justify her claim to her title, and her daughter Anna’s legitimacy, after her husband announces that he already has a wife. However, mother and daughter are driven apart when Anna defies her mother’s wish that she marry her cousin, heir to her father’s title, and falls in love with journeyman tailor and young Radical Daniel Thwaite. The outcome is never in doubt, but Trollope’s ambivalence on the question is profound, and the novel both intense and powerful.

The Way We Live Now

The Way We Live Now, by Anthony Trollope, is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of Barnes & Noble Classics: New introductions commissioned from today’s top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the reader’s viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices & Glossaries, when appropriateAll editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences biographical, historical, and literary to enrich each reader’s understanding of these enduring works. Ruthless greed, relentless self promotion, corporate swindles and scandals on a grand scale indeed this sounds like The Way We Live Now. Though Anthony Trollope s title actually refers to 1870s England, his scathing satire of a money mad culture cuts close to the contemporary bone. At its center stands Augustus Melmotte, a crooked financier whose enormous schemes ensnare an array of avaricious aristocrats, politicians, and important people. Among them are Lady Carbury, who earns the family bread by churning out fatuous potboilers as did Trollope’s mother and her spendthrift, ne’er do well son, Felix, who sets his sights on Melmotte s dangerously beautiful daughter, Marie. Meanwhile, Felix s sister, Hetta, falls for Melmotte s partner, Paul, who s encumbered with an American fianc e, herself a widow who may have shot her husband. As the frauds expand and the romantic entanglements grow ever more complex, Trollope revels in the antics of his characters while pillorying the corruption of their morally bankrupt society. Nathaniel Hawthorne said it best, praising Trollope for putting England under a glass case, with all its inhabitants going about their daily business, and not suspecting that they were made a show of. Karen Odden received her M.A. from the University of Michigan Ann Arbor and her Ph.D. in English literature from New York University. Her dissertation on the medical, legal, and literary discourses that surrounded Victorian railway disasters discusses works by Trollope and his contemporaries, Wilkie Collins, Charles Dickens, M. E. Braddon, and Mrs. Henry Wood. Chapters and articles have appeared in books of literary criticism, anthologies, the Journal of Victorian Culture, and Studies in the Novel; she has taught at the University of Michigan, New York University, and University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. Currently a freelance writer and assistant editor for Victorian Literature and Culture, she resides in Arizona with her husband and two children.

Cousin Henry

FROM MODEST LONDON CLERK TO WEALTHY MANOR SQUIRE Here is one of Anthony Trollope’s most critically successful novels, received well by his contemporaries, and yet experimental enough in execution to be almost ‘modern.’ Henry Jones is just a modest, callow fellow in a meek clerking job in London, when he is summoned by his Uncle Indefer. Indefer Jones is the squire of an estate named Llanfeare in Wales. He’s dying. He’d like to bequeathe his manor and holdings to his beloved niece Isobel Brodrick but tradition dictates he will his land to a male relative with his name Jones. Both Indefer and Isobel dislike Cousin Henry. Squire Jones goes ahead with his plan for his Last Will and Testament but at the last moment changes his heir to Isobel. But Squire Jones dies before the will sees the light of day. Cousin Henry inherits but then discovers the document in the library. Will he have the nerve to destroy the will before lawyers and Isobel find it? A classic of character and the workings of the inner mind, this novel is for fans of Anthony Trollope and newcomers alike.

Dr. Wortle’s School

SCANDAL! Dr. Wortle’s School was a proper Victorian establishment for boys. Therefore, imagine the alarm created when it was discovered that Mr. Peacocke, a teacher there, might have illegally married Mrs. Peacocke, the housemother. Bigamy might be involved! What is Doctor Wortle to do? Especially since it would appear that, under the circumstance, it might have been a graver sin to not get married than to get married! And what about the love affair between his daughter Mary and a student at the school, Lord Carstairs? Here is Anthony Trollope at his best, with a moral dilemma on hand and a bit of satire about the United State thrown in for spice. If you’ve never had the pleasure of reading a book by Anthony Trollope, this, one of his shortest novels, would be a great place to start.

Marion Fay

First published in serial form in the Graphic 1881 2, Marion Fay is half tragedy, half romantic burlesque, and one of Trollope’s most detailed scrutinies of the workings of the English class system. Based on the first three volume edition of 1882, the novel contrasts two love affairs, each involving an aristocrat and a commoner. Trollope vividly evokes the dull working lives, plain homes, blank streets, and limited horizons of the dwellers in Paradise Row, using them as an ironic choric commentary on the unattainable world of rank, wealth, and freedom, symbolized by life in the great country houses.

The Fixed Period

The Fixed Period 1882 by Anthony Trollope is an unusual early science fiction novel, originally published anonymously. It is part utopia, part dystopia, part dark satire, with overtones of modern ‘steampunk’ and quaint technological devices.

In this amazing visionary work by the British Victorian master of social mores and relationships, Britannula is an imaginary ‘futuristic’ island country and a one time British colony near New Zealand, and the story is narrated by the President. In Britannula, a law has been passed decreeing that all citizens who have reached the age of 67 must be removed to ‘The College’ to undergo euthanasia, for the good of society.

What happens when the first and oldest man reaches the end of his ‘Fixed Period’ and must prepare for his ‘humane’ death is a fascinating study of moral and social impossibility.

Mr. Scarborough’s Family

The world has not yet forgotten the intensity of the feeling which existed when old Mr. Scarborough declared that his well known eldest son was not legitimate. Mr. Scarborough himself had not been well known in early life. He had been the only son of a squire in Staffordshire over whose grounds a town had been built and pottery works established. In this way a property which had not originally been extensive had been greatly increased in value, and Mr. Scarborough, when he came into possession, had found himself to be a rich man. He had then gone abroad, and had there married an English lady. After the lapse of some years he had returned to Tretton Park, as his place was named, and there had lost his wife. He had come back with two sons, Mountjoy and Augustus, and there, at Tretton, he had lived, spending, however, a considerable portion of each year in chambers in the Albany. He was a man who, through many years, had had his own circle of friends, but, as I have said before, he was not much known in the world. He was luxurious and self indulgent, and altogether indifferent to the opinion of those around him. But he was affectionate to his children, and anxious above all things for their welfare, or rather happiness. Some marvelous stories were told as to his income, which arose chiefly from the Tretton delf works and from the town of Tretton, which had been built chiefly on his very park, in consequence of the nature of the clay and the quality of the water. As a fact, the original four thousand a year, to which his father had been born, had grown to twenty thousand by nature of the operations which had taken place. But the whole of this, whether four thousand or twenty thousand, was strictly entailed, and Mr. Scarborough had been very anxious, since his second son was born, to create for him also something which might amount to opulence. But they who knew him best knew that of all things he hated most the entail…

The Landleaguers

The Landleaguers‘ was the last novel Anthony Trollope wrote. Though Trollope had planned for Landleaguers to have 40 chapters, he barely made it into the 49th when he had the stroke that ended his writing and, shortly thereafter, his life. ‘The Landleaguers‘ is set in Ireland, a country which Trollope had visited. The earlier Irish woe Trollope had chronicled was the potato famine; in ‘The Landleaguers,’ it is the often bloody conflict between English protestants and Irish Catholics. Trollope loved Ireland and his novels often reflect that, but ‘The Landleaguers‘, with its realistic depiction of terrorism, seems to despair of Ireland’s future. There is a subplot involving the daughter of an American supporter of the Irish campaign against the English; the daughter has come to London to further her career and there are sexual intrigues there. A landlord’s son is murdered by rural terrorists, a crime that replays the real life assassination of Lord Frederic Cavendish in Dublin in 1882, and ‘The Landleaguers‘ traces the violent disruption of civil life as tenants, organized in the Land League, plot to force their landlords to give them a better deal. But part of Trollope’s imaginative response to the crisis takes the form of an intriguingly uncharacteristic sub plot, in which a young American woman travels to London and tries to make a name for herself on the operatic stage, while her father becomes a landleaguing Member of Parliament. Trollope’s son Henry wrote a brief foreword to the novel and added a two sentence postscript announcing the fates that Trollope had planned for the novel’s main characters.

An Old Man’s Love

An Old Man’s Love is Trollope’s last complete novel, finished seven months before his death and written in almost constant pain and ill health. The ‘old man’ of the title, however, is just 50 years old and has never had a days’ illness. William Whittlestaff becomes guardian to Mary Lawrie, the orphaned and penniless daughter of an old friend, and gradually finds himself falling in love with her. But Mary has already given her heart to the young John Gordon who has gone to seek his fortune in the Kimberley diamond fields…
It may be suspected he had Kate Field an American girl whom he met in Italy in 1860 and himself in mind when in old age he wrote An Old Man’s Love, which tells of the fondness half protective and half passionate of a man of fifty for a girl some thirty years his junior.

The Relics of General Chasse: A Tale of Antwerp

Anthony Trollope 1815 1882 was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. He wrote penetrating novels on political, social, and gender issues and conflicts of his day. In 1867 Trollope left his position in the British Post Office to run for Parliament as a Liberal candidate in 1868. After he lost, he concentrated entirely on his literary career. While continuing to produce novels rapidly, he also edited the St Paul’s Magazine, which published several of his novels in serial form. His first major success came with The Warden 1855 the first of six novels set in the fictional county of Barsetshire. The comic masterpiece Barchester Towers 1857 has probably become the best known of these. Trollope’s popularity and critical success diminished in his later years, but he continued to write prolifically, and some of his later novels have acquired a good reputation. In particular, critics generally acknowledge the sweeping satire The Way We Live Now 1875 as his masterpiece. In all, Trollope wrote forty seven novels, as well as dozens of short stories and a few books on travel.

The Courtship Of Susan Bell

It was at the end of the second month when Aaron took another step in advance a perilous step. Sometimes on evenings he still went on with his drawing for an hour or so; but during three or four evenings he never asked any one to look at what he was doing. On one Friday he sat over his work till late, without any reading or talking at all; so late that at last Mrs. Bell said, ‘If you’re going to sit much longer, Mr. Dunn, I’ll get you to put out the candles.’

An Unprotected Female At The Pyramids

Now Mrs. Damer was soft hearted, and also somewhat old fashioned. She did not conceive any violent affection for Miss Dawkins, but she told her daughter that ‘the single lady by herself was a very nice young woman, and that it was a thousand pities she should have to go about so much alone like.’

The Chateau Of Prince Polignac

But few towns, merely as towns, can be better worth visiting. In the first place, the volcanic formation of the ground on which it stands is not only singular in the extreme, so as to be interesting to the geologist, but it is so picturesque as to be equally gratifying to the general tourist. Within a narrow valley there stand several rocks, rising up from the ground with absolute abruptness.

Returning Home

In the first month of her hurry and flurry Mrs. Arkwright was a happy woman. She would see her mother again and her sisters. It was now four years since she had left them on the quay at Southampton, while all their hearts were broken at the parting. She was a young bride then, going forth with her new lord to meet the stern world.

George Walker At Suez

Classic Trollope short story. According to Wikipedia: ‘Anthony Trollope 1815 1882 became one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. Some of Trollope’s best loved works, known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, revolve around the imaginary county of Barsetshire; he also wrote penetrating novels on political, social, and gender issues and conflicts of his day. Trollope has always been a popular novelist. Noted fans have included Sir Alec Guinness who never travelled without a Trollope novel, former British Prime Ministers Harold Macmillan and Sir John Major, economist John Kenneth Galbraith, American novelists Sue Grafton and Dominick Dunne and soap opera writer Harding Lemay. Trollope’s literary reputation dipped somewhat during the last years of his life, but he regained the esteem of critics by the mid twentieth century. ‘Of all novelists in any country, Trollope best understands the role of money. Compared with him even Balzac is a romantic.’ W. H. Auden’

The Parson’s Daughter Of Oxney Colne

But our present story will have more to do with his daughter than with him. A pretty girl, I have said, was Patience Woolsworthy; and one, too, in many ways remarkable. She had taken her outlook into life, weighing the things which she had and those which she had not, in a manner very unusual, and, as a rule, not always desirable for a young lady. The things which she had not were very many.

The Man Who Kept His Money In A Box

As I was not myself possessed of anything of that sort, and had no intention of going to any foreign court, I could not argue the matter with her. But I assisted her in getting together an enormous pile of luggage, among which there were seven large boxes covered with canvas, such as ladies not uncommonly carry with them when travelling. That one which she represented as being smaller than the others, and as holding jewellery, might be about a yard long by a foot and a half deep.

The West Indies and the Spanish Main

1860. Prolific English writer of novels dealing with Victorian life. Trollope also worked and traveled extensively for the Post Office, undertaking important postal missions at various times to Egypt, the West Indies and the United States. In addition to his novels Trollope wrote a number of travel books. This volume begins: I am beginning to write this book on board the brig , trading between Kingston, in Jamaica, and Cien Fuegos, on the southern coast of Cuba. At the present moment there is not a puff of wind, neither land breeze nor sea breeze; the sails are flapping idly against the masts; there is not motion enough to give us the command of the rudder; the tropical sun is shining through upon my head into the miserable hole which they have deluded me into thinking was a cabin. The marine people the captain and his satellites are bound to provide me; and all that they have provided is yams, salt pork, biscuit, and bad coffee. I should be starved but for the small ham would that it had been a large one which I thoughtfully purchased in Kingston; and had not a kind medical friend, as he grasped me by the hand at Port Royal, stuffed a box of sardines into my pocket. He suggested two boxes. Would that I had taken them! See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

South Africa, Vol. 1

Always a keen traveler, Anthony Trollope toured South Africa in 1877 and provides a fascinating account of his travels around a still untamed land at a time when British rule was being challenged by the native peoples. Trollope relates an insightful history of the first Dutch and then British colonial rule imposed over the native peoples as well as vivid descriptions of the people, the architecture, the landscape and the sights and sounds of late nineteenth century South Africa. It is in his dealings with the natives that Trollope is at his most fascinating and unusually perceptive. His own views reflect the common opinion of the day that colonial rule could only improve their lives, but at the same time gives an insight into the negative effects of colonialism on the natives and the grievances it created, problems which only two years later erupted with devastating consequences in the Zulu Wars. South Africa is an unrivalled account of the land and all its people by a master writer, and is a fascinating description of a small but vital part of the British Empire during its prime.

An Autobiography (With: )

Anthony Trollope is most famous for his portrait of the professional and landed clas*ses of Victorian England, especially in his Palliser and Barsetshire novels. But he was also the author of one of the most fascinating autobiographies of the nineteenth century. Trollope was born in 1815, the son of a formidable mother and a tragically unsuccessful father. Poor, ill dressed, awkward, and sullen, he was the victim of vicious bullying at Harrow and Winchester. But he managed later to carve out a successful career in the General Post Office while devoting every spare moment except in hunting season to writing. How he paid his groom to wake him every morning at 5. 30 a.m. and disciplined himself to write 250 words every quarter of an hour has become part of literary legend. His efforts resulted in over sixty books, fortune, and fame, and in An Autobiography Trollope looks back on his life with some satisfaction. The facts he reveals and the opinions he records about Dickens and George Eliot, politics and the civil service are as revealing as the judgments he pas*ses on his own character.
