The Last Chronicle of Barset

Trollope's magnificent final Barset novel brings back beloved characters for one last hurrah, centring on the heartbreaking tribulation of Reverend Josiah Crawley, accused of theft and facing ruin. It's Victorian fiction at its finest—richly plotted, deeply humane, and brimming with social comedy and moral complexity. This Wordsworth edition makes the sprawling masterpiece wonderfully accessible. Perfect for devotees of nineteenth-century novels who love getting gloriously lost in cathedral towns, clerical politics, and the intricate dance of honour and pride.
