Bah. Son rimasta scettica: la prosa è complessa e ben strutturata, ma appesantita di dettagli inutili; la vicenda è lineare ma piatta.
Ma soprattutto i personaggi sono sterili, non si prova né simpatia né antipatia per loro, ma una più generale indifferenza. In tal modo le pagine si trascinano in modo soporifero.
Letto in compagnia della mia reading buddy @beapog75, che spero non mi proporrà di proseguire la serie.

An enjoyable little read about Mr. Harding's conscience and his son-in-law to be houding him for his exorbitant income.

I've read my fair share of Victorian authors by now, but I'm not sure if Trollope will be one I'll be revisiting any time soon.
Although the prose is beautiful, I honestly couldn't quote you a single line from this book even if I tried.

Think it was a mistake to read Trollope right after the Brontes as it just came across as terribly pale and boring.
