Trollope

Glendinning succeeds, as no biographer has done before, in bringing him to life on the page-Here, at last, is an Anthony Trollope whom one can know as a man-The effect is startlingly impressive.

Jonathan Raban,, Independent on Sunday

'Enormously enjoyable'

John Mortimer, Books of the Year, Sunday Times

Full of fascinating knowledge about the Victorian age in England-A great story superbly told.'

Augustine Martin,, Irish Times

As compelling readable as any of Anthony's own novels.'

Ruth Rendell,, Sunday Express

I came to this biography of Trollope with unreasonably high expectations. They were amply fulfilled-A work as readable, richly shifting and well-shaped as a good novel-compendiously well-informed.'

Caroline Moore,, The Times

A brilliant and subtle interweaving of the man and the work; wonderful.'

Joanna Trollope, Books of the Year,, Daily Telegraph
