Publisher's Synopsis
Lady Anna is a novel written by the renowned English author Anthony Trollope. The book tells the story of Lady Anna, the daughter of a wealthy earl, who falls in love with a poor tailor named Daniel Thwaite. The two lovers are faced with opposition from Lady Anna's family, who disapprove of the match due to the difference in their social status. The novel explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations, and follows Lady Anna's struggle to choose between her heart and her duty to her family. Along the way, Trollope weaves a complex web of relationships and characters, including Lady Anna's mother, the Earl of Lovel, and Daniel's sister, who all play a role in the unfolding drama. With its engaging plot and well-drawn characters, Lady Anna is a classic tale of love and society that still resonates with readers today.Not a word had been heard in Keswick of the proposed return of the old lord -- for the Earl was now an old man -- past his sixtieth year, and in truth with as many signs of age as some men bear at eighty. The life which he had led no doubt had had its allurements, but it is one which hardly admits of a hale and happy evening. Men who make women a prey, prey also on themselves. But there he was, back at Lovel Grange, and no one knew why he had come, nor whence, nor how.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
