A review by ipb1
Phineas Redux by Anthony Trollope

5.0

Warning - very nearly as much fox-hunting as [b:Memoirs of a Fox-Hunting Man|16171204|Memoirs of a Fox-Hunting Man|Siegfried Sassoon|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1356086755l/16171204._SY75_.jpg|1885119], which is at least pretty up-front about its contents. That aside you can expect the usual Palliser world in all of its magnificent, shallow, frothy glory. It's like 'Love island'* set amongst the 19thC country houses of England. With the odd murder-mystery thrown in to pad things out. There is also more of the inimitable Glencora, the prototype of everyone from Lady Bracknell to the Dowager Countess of Grantham. Just wonderful.

*which I admit I've never seen, but imagine is similar to this.
