February 2012 Guest Editor Joanna Trollope on Anthony Trollope...
The real Trollope. Of all the Victorians, Anthony Trollope is the most profoundly psychological of novelists – and he was writing long before Freud!. His women are particularly good, especially when you think that marriage was the only career option for millions of them. If you haven’t been able to face one of his novels – they can be a bit enormous – try “Miss Mackenzie”, the story of an old maid (at 34!) who inherits some money…

On My Bookshelf by Joanna Trollope...
No writer of his time was better at people than, as my family refer to him, The Real Trollope – Anthony of the small specs and the huge beard. Miss Mackenzie is an affectionate and accurate portrait of the eternal female psyche – a small gem.
Anthony Trollope was a British writer who is considered to be one of the most prominent authors of the Victorian era. Trollope created the fictional county of Barsetshire which many of his novels are set in. Trollope also wrote on the political and social issues on England during his time.
