Barchester Towers | Anthony Trollope

#FolioFriday

Here's one of my purchases from the "book town" of Sidney. I have somehow made it to this point in my life without reading any Trollope. ?

rubyslippersreads So pretty! I've read some of The Pallisers series, but none of the Barsetshire Chronicles, which I think then leads to reading Angela Thirkell. 😄 7y
Cinfhen 😻😻😻 7y

Lcsmcat I love Trollope! 7y
BarbaraBB Me too, but I bought the whole Pallieter series to encourage myself! 7y
cathysaid Me too! Just read The Warden last week and am midway through Barchester Towers. I'm enjoying Trollope's dry wit and I suspect he's also a feminist...at least that's how I'm choosing to interpret some of his social commentary. Love this gorgeous set of books! Jealous 💚 7y
LeahBergen @rubyslippersreads I was always curious how the Thirkell series tied into Trollope's. Oh oh.... I may go #DrunkThirkelling soon. 😆 7y
LeahBergen @Cinfhen 😘😘 7y
LeahBergen @TrishB 😘😘 7y
LeahBergen @Lcsmcat Oh, good! I don't know how I haven't read him on one of my previous Vic Lit binges. 7y
LeahBergen @BarbaraBB I'll attempt to read these before buying any in that series. 😆 7y
LeahBergen @cathysaid Oh, good! I'm glad you're liking them. And thanks! 😘 7y
rubyslippersreads I haven't seen it, but there is a BBC miniseries of The Barchester Chronicles with Alan Rickman. 😍 7y
elkeOriginal PRETTY! I love they each are their own color 👏👏 7y
shawnmooney Nice! Barchester Towers is his most famous, but I found it rather dull compared to 7y
Chachic Gorgeous! Love the statue you included in the pic. 7y
LeahBergen @rubyslippersreads And another series for me to watch! 7y
LeahBergen @elkeo 😘😘 7y
LeahBergen @shawnmooney Now you're really inspiring me to become a #TrollopeTrollop 😉 7y
LeahBergen @Chachic Thank you! 😘 7y
shawnmooney @LeahBergen We're both halfway there! 😂😂 7y
LeahBergen @shawnmooney Ha!! ? I've always liked the word "trollop" and amused myself when I bought these by telling the bookseller that I was "interested in the Trollopes up top". He had to take them off a high shelf. ? 7y
Sydsavvy OMG!!! I have made it through life without him, too. But I have a client who gave me a Trollop and is not happy that I haven't read it. 😑. I had never heard of him! 7y
