The Way We Live Now

The Way we live now by Anthony Trollope

Here’s one hefty classic (950 pages) that is also a pleasure to read. The satiric plot pulls you right along.

Lady Carbury, an aspiring and penniless author, struggles to get her book published and favorably reviewed. At the same time she schemes to marry her money-wasting son to an heiress. When fabulously wealthy Marie arrives on the scene, marriage offers abound, and scoundrels come out in force Trollope’s satire makes fun of greed, romance and snobbery in 1870’s Britain.
