Framley Parsonage by Anthony Trollope
3.0
It's been a while since I've read Trollope, and I found it the perfect way to escape our troubled times.
I often think that had they been written by a woman, the Barsetshire Chronicles would have been overlooked; perhaps resurrected by Persephone Books with appropriately beautiful end papers. It's domesticity, and class, and gender all exposed.
A lot of characters to keep track of in this one, but I enjoy Lady Lufton's iron fist in a velvet glove style!
