This early work by Anthony Trollope was originally published in 1847 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. ‘The Macdermots of Ballycloran’ is Trollope’s first novel. It follows senile Larry Macdermot, Thady - his well-meaning but ignorant son, and a daughter, Feemy. "The Macdermots is almost in the first flight of Trollope... The story is of the simplest, but broadens, as every story ought to do, into the full bounds of its environment... The characters are all revealed by natural and lively dialogue, and every character has his work to do in the development of the central theme." – Walpole

About the Author:

Anthony Trollope (24 April 1815 – 6 December 1882) was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. Among his best-loved works is a series of novels collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which revolves around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. He also wrote perceptive novels on political, social, and gender issues, and on other topical matters. 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.
