The Way We Live Now by Anthony Trollope

5.0

The learning curve for this book was really high but once I became familiarized with the writing and the setting I greatly enjoyed this book. It was so gripping and immersive. It also seemed so probable and the commentary it brought on money, marriage, politics, morality, relationships and happiness was so good!! One of my favorite Victorian novels I have read so far and I definitely want to read more from this author. It is kind of hard to recommend though because it is so dense and so greatly set in this era that you already need to have a good foundational knowledge on the late Victorian era and the mechanics of the society to maneuver through this book.
