Belton Estate
Belton Estate | Anthony Trollope
2 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
THE BELTON ESTATE (1865) by Anthony Trollope is a fine example of the author's favorite subjects: social and family relationships, inheritance, a young woman faced with the delicate choice of worthy husbands, and a sophisticated portrayal of British Victorian life. Clara Amedroz, the lady in question, must find her place, after deaths in the family leave her vulnerable and without a fortune. Her home, the Belton Estate, has been entailed. And before happiness can be had, Clara must be sensible, patient, and above all tactful in the face of difficulty, not to mention an unspeakable mother-in-law.

LeahBergen I‘ve tried to rein in my “Trollope tendencies” at the bookstores after buying the whole Barsetshire set at once ... but now you‘ve got me inspired. 😆 3y

Belton Estate | Anthony Trollope

I am thinking of going to an estate sale this afternoon (mother of a former neighbor) because she said "lots of books $1 each" and I have $40 left won in a slot machine last week (yay found money!). What should I look for? Anyone else get books at estate sales?

BookishMarginalia No estate sales here in PR, but wishing you great book karma in this one! Keep us posted! 7y
minkyb I wish you luck and happy hunting. 7y
