Literary wizardry and hilarious digs… Entertaining twists, flirtations, jiltigs, broken hearts… Wicked!
Val Hennessy, Daily Mail
Doctor Thorne has the best plot - seduction, murder, families ruined by drink and debt - and, in the eponymous doctor, the most sympathetic and human of all Trollope's heroes
Guardian
One would be hard put to name a more enjoyable Victorian novelist than Anthony Trollope
Washington Post
There is wonderful comedy in Doctor Thorne… The book is a testament to Trollope’s belief in decency as a guide to living, and I think we are made all the better for it.
Julian Fellowes, Radio Times
Why did Freud bother? This is so much better, and truer
Daily Telegraph
