About the book

Anthony Trollope's The Parson's Daughter and Other Stories brings together five tales of love, pride, money and the awkward claims of social position. In the title story, Patience Woolsworthy must decide whether marriage is worth accepting a suitor's condescension. The collection also includes La Mère Bauche, Father Giles of Ballymoy, The Spotted Dog and Alice Dugdale. Moving between courtship, family obligations and literary life, these shorter works show Trollope's gift for sympathetic characterisation and his sharp eye for the compromises people make when affection and self-interest collide.
