About this listen

Dive into the intriguing world of Anthony Trollopes Barchester Towers, the second novel in the captivating Barsetshire series. Picking up where The Warden left off, this narrative unfolds with the death of the old bishop and the controversial appointment of the new bishop, Dr. Proudie. As Dr. Grantly faces off against the formidable Mrs. Proudie—an unwavering strict Sabbatarian and the true power behind the scenes—the stakes rise dramatically. Meanwhile, the wealthy young widow Eleanor, set to capture clerical hearts, adds another layer of complexity to the unfolding drama. With the fate of Hirams Hospital hanging in the balance and a new Dean entering the fray, tensions mount and allegiances shift in this richly woven tale of ambition, power, and intrigue. Join us for a journey through the social and ecclesiastical landscape of 19th-century England! (Summary by Andy)
