Anthony Trollope
Orley Farm: A Novel
Paperback
(Forgotten Books July 13, 2017)
Excerpt from Orley Farm: A Novel
The objection urged of old times against novels, that they give false views of life, does not apply to Mr. Trollope's books. They are characterized by a fidelity to Nature, and a skill in seizing and transferring her salient points, which make them strike home to the consciousness of his reader, and commend themselves to his judgment. Without much sentiment, or ideality, or poetry, there is a healthy common sense which goes straight to the mark.
