Sobre este artículo
London: Smith, Elder and Co., 1867. 1st. Hardcover. Frontispiece in both volumes and 30 black-and-white illustrations by George H. Thomas. Bound in the publisher's original blue cloth with the title stamped in gilt on the spine and front cover. Both volumes have rubbing at the extremities. Volume two has chips to the head and the heel of the spine. Two inner hinges are seperated, a third is starting, the fourth is fine. Volume one has been rebacked. The pages are relatively clean with very little foxing. The text block in both volumes is sound. A good candidate for a leather binding.
Sinopsis
Anthony Trollope was a masterful satirist with an unerring eye for the most intrinsic details of human behavior and an imaginative grasp of the preoccupations of nineteenth-century English novels. In The Last Chronicle of Barset , Mr. Crawley, curate of Hogglestock, falls deeply into debt, bringing suffering to himself and his family. To make matters worse, he is accused of theft, can't remember where he got the counterfeit check he is alleged to have stolen, and must stand trial. Trollope's powerful portrait of this complex man-gloomy, brooding, and proud, moving relentlessly from one humiliation to another-achieves tragic dimensions.
