Ultimately a Victorian story of who will marry whom, but the opening 20% or so of the novel, in which the characters are named and outlined and the stage is set, is hilarious. Certainly, if you were interested, you could learn a lot about the ranked clerical positions of the Anglican church here, and many great words are used, e.g. congé, toxophilites, ha-ha, and, my favorite, hebdomadal. “Her virtues were too numerous to describe, and not sufficiently interesting to deserve description.” "husbands, oh, my marital friends, what great comfort is there to be derived from a wife well obeyed!" Barchester Towers is hilarious, a couple of the numerous witty quotes from this novel. Drop a star for being a bit long-winded. Trollope is becoming a favorite.... nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
