- Doctor Thorne
Frank Gresham is set upon an unsuitable match. The son of the impoverished squire of Greshambury, he has fallen in love with the obscure and penniless Mary Thorne, ward of Doctor Thorne.
Despite the promptings of his family to consider a Miss Dunstable, heiress to a fortune, Frank’s affections persist and the humane Doctor, as Mary’s protector, must confront the prejudices of the mid-Victorian society, while not abandoning its values.
Anthony Trollope described ‘Doctor Thorne', his third Barsetshire novel, as ‘The most popular book I have ever written.’
Anthony Trollope (1815–82) published his first novel in 1847. It was in 1855 that he published ‘The Warden', the first of his most famous series, the Barsetshire novels. The series continued with ‘Barchester Towers', 'Doctor Thorne', 'Framley Parsonage', 'The Small House at Allington' and ‘The Last Chronicle of Barset'.
