Sinopsis

In "Can You Forgive Her?", Anthony Trollope embarks on a profound exploration of love, loyalty, and the complexities of human relationships within Victorian society. This novel, the first in the acclaimed Palliser series, deftly intertwines multiple storylines revolving around the challenging decisions faced by its female protagonist, Alice Vavasor. Trollope's literary style showcases his characteristic irony and keen social observation, reflecting the moral quandaries of 19th-century gender roles and the institution of marriage. Through rich characterization and detailed dialogue, the reader is invited to navigate the labyrinthine paths of the heart, encapsulating the era's conflicting ideals of independence and societal expectation. Anthony Trollope, one of the most significant novelists of the Victorian period, was deeply influenced by his experiences in the realms of politics and social reform. His tenure in the Post Office and his keen interest in parliamentary life allowed Trollope to scrutinize societal norms and relationships critically. "Can You Forgive Her?" was born from his unique perspective on gender dynamics and the moral conundrums of his time, particularly as he crafts characters that epitomize both strength and vulnerability. This novel is a must-read for those intrigued by character-driven narratives and explorations of emotional complexity. Trollope's nuanced portrayal of societal pressures invites readers to reflect on their own beliefs about love and forgiveness, making it an essential addition to any literary collection.

The Daughter of Lilith - From...

Anatole France

François-Anatole Thibault was born on the 16th April 1844 in Paris, France, the son of a bookseller and bibliophile. 
He studied at the Collège Stanislas, a private Catholic school, and after graduating joined his father in the bookstore, which specialised in works on the French Revolution.  Several years later he secured a position as cataloguer at Bacheline-Deflorenne and at Lemerre before being appointed librarian for the French Senate in 1876. 
His literary career had begun as a journalist and as a poet before publishing his novel ‘Le Crime de Sylvestre Bonnard’ in 1881.  Praised for its elegant prose, it won him a prestigious prize from the Académie Française, which later elected him to its storied ranks. 
His works were profound and thoughtful and often couched in surreal and outlandish expressions; whether penguins baptized by a near-blind Abbott transformed themselves into humans or of a guardian angel who becomes an atheist, his stories turned established thought into startling literature. 
His short stories run in the same vein.  The premise may seem plausible but his distinctive style turns them into an individual viewpoint which invokes both discussion and admiration. 
In his private life his relationships with women were often turbulent.  A Socialist, he was a fervent supporter of the Russian Revolution and the early years of the French Communist party. 
He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921 but the following year his entire canon of works was placed on the prohibited list of the Catholic Church, which he thought of as a credit to his name. 
Anatole France died on the 12th October 1924 in Tours.  He was 80.
