Description: The fact is Mark that you and I cannot conceive the depth of fraud in such a man as that. The Reverend Mark Robarts makes a mistake. Drawn into a social set at odds with his clerical responsibilities he guarantees the debts of an unscrupulous Member of Parliament. He stands to lose his reputation and his family future and home are all in peril. His patroness the proud and demanding Lady Lufton is offended and the romantic hopes of Mark's sister Lucy courted by Lady Lufton's son are in jeopardy. Pride and ambition are set against love and integrity in a novel that has remained one of Trollope's most popular stories. Set against ecclesiastical events in the Barchester diocese and informed by British political instability after the Crimean War Trollope's fourth Barchester novel was his first major success. A compelling history of uncertain futures Framley Parsonage is a vivid exploration of emotional and geographical displacement that grew out of Trollope's own experiences as he returned to England from Ireland in 1859.
