Trollope Lite


(3 Sterne)

The readers were excellent, but this is not Trollope at his best. It’s a sweet little romance with decent characterization that’s suitable for a time when the listener doesn’t want to work at complicated plot. Essentially the lovers must overcome the disapprobation of their parents, and they do.

very good for relaxing to

The reading is fabulous. I love Anthony Trollope, but this must be his slowest story... almost boring, but sweet. A good story for going to sleep to or relaxing.

So boring I could not bear it after 4 chapters. not the readers fault, just very boring story. . And this from a Troloppiphile!

has charm but repetitive


(2.5 Sterne)

The readers are wonderful!, but Trollope repeats himself ad nauseum. Ultimately it just wore me out.

A fun story well read. As usual Trollope characters are a little confused about their own intentions, but a charming story anyway.

RAHR....MEOW

Full of obstinacy. A bit drawn out in places, but overall an excellent work.

Classic Trollope
