Title: Doctor Thorne Author: Anthony Trollope Narrator: Nicholas Clifford Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 46 minutes Release date: September 8, 2020 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 1 of Total 1 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: 'Doctor Thorne' is the third of Trollope's Barsetshire novels and unlike some of the others has little to do with politics and religion. The plot revolves around Mary Thorne, an illegitimate child who has been lovingly raised by her uncle, a country doctor, and who, as she comes of age, finds herself wondering whether she is a lady, or to which social class she truly belongs. Frank Gresham, son of the squire of Greshamsbury, is in love with her (much against the wishes of his noble de Courcy relatives at the Castle), but she dismisses his affection at first as mere puppy love, thereby setting the scene for a series of entanglements, both social, romantic, and financial. One critic has remarked that in 'Doctor Thorne,' Trollope succeeds in one of the most difficult tasks an author of fiction can face: how to make genuinely good people genuinely interesting, so that they engage not only the sympathies but also the interest of the reader. - Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was one of most succesful British authors of the Victorian era. He has written more than forty novels, as well as many short stories and travelogues. Trollope was also an editor and an active member of the London literary scene. Among his most notable works is the series 'The Chronicles of Barsetshire', a series of six novels set in fictional Barsetshire.
