Anthony Trollope is a British classic whose modern popularity in the English-speaking world is comparable only to that of Jane Austen ("Trollope kills me with his mastery," Leo Tolstoy wrote in his diary), and The Barchester Chronicles is deservedly considered one of his greatest achievements. (In 1982, the BBC aired the series The Barchester Chronicles, starring Alan Rickman and Donald Pleasence.)

This book includes the first two "chronicles"—"The Caretaker" and "Barchester Towers"—which are often compared to Leskov's "The Cathedral Dwellers." In a quiet provincial town, serious passions are unfolding, and in the Barchester cathedral members – the warden and the archdeacon, the bishop and Mrs. Proudie – the reader unexpectedly recognizes himself, his family and colleagues, and in the church squabbles of Victorian England, in the conflict between personal conscience and traditional privileges – the burning issues of our time.
