Just finished this the fifth book in Trollope‘s six book Palliser series. It can be read alone but was particularly satisfying since many characters from previous books pop up here and there. Trollope has become one of my go-to comfort reads.
Listening to Simon Vance read Trollope is perfection. This 5th book in the Palliser novels was great. I love how all his characters interweave through the series.
