Items related to Barchester Towers
Barchester Towers concerns the leading clergy of the cathedral city of Barchester. The much loved bishop having died, all expectations are that his son, Archdeacon Grantly, will succeed him. Instead, owing to the passage of the power of patronage to a new Prime Minister, a newcomer, the far more Evangelical Bishop Proudie, gains the see. His wife, Mrs Proudie, exercises an undue influence over the new bishop, making herself as well as the bishop unpopular with most of the clergy of the diocese.

Review:
"Start with Barchester Towers, generally reckoned to be the best, certainly the funniest" (Guardian)
"It was in [Trollope's] fifth book, Barchester Towers, in which he blended his satirical gifts with disdain for evangelical puritanism, that he found himself" (Washington Post)
"His characters are real, truthfully felt and never patronised by their creator" (Daily Mail)
"[The] Barsetshire novels firmly established clerical intrigue as an art form in the mid-nineteenth century" (New York Times)
"Trollope is one of our greatest comic novelists, as well as having an extraordinary talent for taking you confidentially and irresistibly into the flow of his story" (Sunday Times)
