Produktbeschreibung

In "Aaron Trow," Anthony Trollope presents a gripping narrative that expertly intertwines social realism with moral inquiry. Set on a desolate, wind-swept island, the story revolves around the character of Aaron Trow, a convicted murderer who becomes embroiled in a battle of wits against a condescending architect and an indifferent society. Trollope's literary style is characterized by keen psychological insights and intricate characterizations, distinguishing him within the Victorian literary context. The novella also reflects the era's ambivalence towards crime and punishment, as well as societal alienation, ultimately inviting readers to ponder the complexities of human nature and justice. Trollope, a prolific novelist and social commentator, drew upon his extensive experiences in both the British civil service and his varied travels throughout the UK and America. His keen observations of societal structures, paired with a deeply humanistic approach, inform the moral and philosophical dimensions present in "Aaron Trow." Trollope's own struggles with public perception and class dynamics might have driven him to explore themes of redemption and societal judgment in this powerful tale. I highly recommend "Aaron Trow" to readers who appreciate rich character development and nuanced moral dilemmas. Trollope'Äôs ability to examine the failings and strengths of humanity amid challenging circumstances resonates with contemporary issues of justice and belonging. This novella stands as an exceptional work that both entertains and provokes thoughtful reflection.

Autorenporträt

Anthony Trollope (1815 - 1882) was an English novelist of the Victorian era. Among his best-known works is a series of novels collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which revolves around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. He also wrote novels on political, social and gender issues and other topical matters. Trollope's literary reputation dipped somewhat during the last years of his life but he had regained the esteem of critics by the mid-20th century. Trollope began writing on the numerous long train trips around Ireland he had to take to carry out his postal duties. Setting very firm goals about how much he would write each day, he eventually became one of the most prolific writers of all time. He wrote his earliest novels while working as a Post Office inspector, occasionally dipping into the "lost-letter" box for ideas.
