Kept in the Dark Trollope, Anthony

Kept in the Dark (1882) by Anthony Trollope, one of his final works, contains all the elements for which the author is so well-loved, the ups and downs, tragedy and joy of relationships, rendered with the sensibility of Jane Austen and the heartwarming cheer of Dickens.

Here, couples love and fight, engagements are made and broken, romantic deceptions, misunderstandings and wonderful revelations come to light, as only Trollope could write them.

Author Bio

Anthony Trollope

Trollope worked as a civil servant in the post office until he was 52, at the same time traveling extensively in Britain, the U. S., and Europe. He turned his foreign journeys into travel books and his observations on English life into 47 novels. His books deal with most of the typical themes of Victorian literature: class, money, status, youth and age, marriage and sexual mores, and the crisis in the institutions of the Church of England. Each of the novels is self-contained, but many characters, locales, and situations recur. At the age of 57, he suffered a paralytic stroke while laughing at a family read-aloud session, and died a month later.
