The Vicar Of Bullhampton eBook

Frank Fenwick is in many ways a model clergyman in his Wiltshire parish. But in his ministry and friendships, his good intentions embroil him in unwonted controversy. The poor miller's family is plunged into moral and legal difficulties, the romantic interest of his best friend is beset with obstacles, and conflict with the dissenting chapel deepens.

Unusually, Trollope provides a preface to this novel, judging that his treatment of the "fallen woman" subplot could be criticized for being overly sympathetic.

Through varied plot lines Trollope weaves his characteristic psychological insight, treating themes of loyalty and hypocrisy, constancy in love, and forgiveness and its lack.

Perfect for readers who love richly detailed Victorian fiction with authentic moral complexity and compelling human drama.
