Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Following the death of her husband Sir Florian, beautiful Lizzie Eustace mysteriously comes into possession of a hugely expensive diamond necklace. She maintains it was a gift from her husband, but the Eustace lawyers insist she give it up, and while her cousin Frank takes her side, her new lover Lord Fawn states that he will only marry her if the necklace is surrendered. As gossip and scandal intensify, Lizzie's truthfulness is thrown into doubt, and, in her desire to keep the jewels, she is driven to increasingly desperate acts. The third in Trollope's Palliser series, The Eustace Diamonds bears all the hallmarks of his later works, blending dark cynicism with humour and a keen perception of human nature.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. At first savagely reviewed, The Way We Live Now (1875) has since emerged as Trollope's masterpiece and the most admired of his works. When Trollope returned to England from the colonies in 1872 he was horrified by the immorality and dishonesty he found. In a fever of indignation he sat down to write The Way We Live Now, his longest novel. Nothing escaped the satirist's whip: politics, finance, the aristocracy, the literary world, gambling, sex, and much else. In this world of bribes and vendettas, swindling and suicide, in which heiresses are won like gambling stakes, Trollope's characters embody all the vices: Lady Carbury, a 43-year-old coquette, 'false from head to foot'; her son Felix, with the 'instincts of a horse, not approaching the higher sympathies of a dog'; and Melmotte, the colossal figure who dominates the book, a 'horrid, big, rich scoundrel .a bloated swindler .a vile city ruffian'.

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Is He Popenjoy? (1878) by Anthony Trollope is a novel of British Victorian mores, based on an infamous social scandal of the day having to do with a disputed noble inheritance. In true Trollope fashion, marital issues and heartwarming sensibilities are mixed into a cauldron of wit, humorous satire, and notions of propriety (including the amusing introduction of the decidedly shameless dance called the Kappa-kappa), with Mary Lovelace, a young woman at the heart of the complex multi-layered story that poses and finally answers the question who is Lord Popenjoy.…
