Doctor Thorne de Anthony Trollope

Doctor Thorne

Autor Anthony Trollope
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 oct 1993
The plot of Doctor Thorne (1858), the third novel in Anthony Trollope's Barsetshire series, is set in motion by a seduction, a murder, and an illegitimate birth, and carried forward in an intense struggle for privilege and position.  That these potentially melodramatic elements never disturb Trollope's richly woven, classically balanced tapestry of provincial life is a continuing testament to his handsome, civil, endlessly entertaining art.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

A fine country house set in rolling acres, a handsome young master and his beautiful sweetheart. A timeless, idyllic English scene. Yet something is wrong with this perfect picture. With all its pleasing vistas, Frank Gresham's vast estate is a landscape of debt, every last piece mortgaged by a feckless father. And the only birthright of Mary Thorne, the beloved niece of the village's respected doctor, is the stigma of illegitimacy.

Notă biografică

Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was born in London to a bankrupt barrister father and a mother who, as a well-known writer, supported the family. Trollope enjoyed considerable acclaim both as a novelist and as a senior civil servant in the Post Office. He published more than forty novels and many short stories that are regarded by some as among the greatest of nineteenth-century fiction.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
'Frank has but one duty before him. He must marry money.'The squire of Greshamsbury has fallen on hard times, and it is incumbent on his son Frank to make a good marriage. But Frank loves the doctor's niece, Mary Thorne, a girl with no money and mysterious parentage. He faces a terrible dilemma: should he save the estate, or marry the girl he loves? Mary, too, has to battle her feelings, knowing that marrying Frank would ruin his family and fly in the face of his mother's opposition. Her pride is matched by that of her uncle, Dr Thorne, who has to decide whether to reveal a secret that would resolve Frank's difficulty, or to uphold the innate merits of his own family heritage.The character of Dr Thorne reflects Trollope's own contradictory feelings about the value of tradition and the need for change. His subtle portrayal, and the comic skill and gentle satire with which the story is developed, are among the many pleasures of this delightful novel.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

Recenzii

Powerfully lucid in its account of the subservience of the "exchange of young bodies" in this novel to the cause of the preservation of the Greshambury estate.
