The Wardenby Anthony Trollope
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The first of Trollopes popular Barsetshire novels, set in the fictional cathedral town of Barchester, The Warden centers on the honorable cleric Septimus Harding, one of Trollopes most memorable characters. When Harding is accused of mismanaging church funds, his predicament lays bare the complexities of the Victorian world and of nineteenth-century provincial life. And, as Louis Auchincloss observes in his Introduction, “The theme of The Warden presents the kind of social problem that always fascinated Trollope: the inevitable clash of ancient privilege with modern social awareness.”
About the AuthorLouis Auchincloss has written more than fifty books, including The Rector of Justin and, most recently, Manhattan Monologues. He lives in New York City.
