About the book

Mary Gresley and Other Stories presents five examples of Anthony Trollope's shorter fiction: The O'Conors of Castle Conor, The Journey to Panama, Katchen's Caprices, The Turkish Bath and Mary Gresley. The selection moves from Irish hospitality and continental courtship to the encounters and disappointments of literary life. In Mary Gresley, an editor becomes involved in the hopes of an aspiring young writer. Trollope brings the same interest in money, manners, ambition and human vulnerability that animates his novels to these compact, often gently ironic stories.
