Description
Framley Parsonage tells the story of Mark Robarts, a young man with charm and principle, who is appointed Vicar of Framley. His life seems perfect, but his social ambition and naivety lead him to be drawn into a sophisticated world that challenges his moral values.
As he becomes embroiled in this new world, Robarts finds himself on the edge of ruin, with only his friends able to save him from disaster. Meanwhile, Lady Lufton faces her own trials as she suspects her son's involvement with an unsuitable attachment. Anthony Trollope brings his characteristic wit and comic touches to this portrayal of life in 19th-century England.
First published in 1860, Framley Parsonage is the fourth novel in The Barsetshire Chronicles, a series that showcases Trollope's skill at capturing the complexities of family life and social relationships. This reprint offers a chance to experience one of his most popular novels, with its lively characters and engaging story.
