Forlagsbeskrivelse af Miss Sarah Jack af Anthony Trollope

Wealthy spinster Miss Sarah Jack encourages young Maurice Cumming, the impoverished proprietor of a Jamaican coffee and sugar plantation, to run for the House of Assembly in Jamaica. Whilst in Spanish Town, Maurice meets and falls in love with Miss Sarah Jack’s niece - the serial flirt Marian Leslie. The path to their love will not be smooth however, and Miss Sarah Jack finds herself occupied with trying to bring the young couple together. One of Anthony Trollope’s earlier novels, ‘Miss Sarah Jack’ was first published in 1861. Anthony Trollope (1815 – 1882) was a Victorian writer and author of 47 novels. He also wrote an autobiography, short stories and plays, travel articles, reviews and lectures. A prolific writer, he made no secret of the fact that money was his motivation for writing – an admission which raised eyebrows among his literary contemporaries at the time. The amount of works Trollope authored are testament to his belief in hard work. His first successful novel was The Warden followed by its sequel, Barchester Towers. The Chronicles of Barsetshire are perhaps his most well-known series of novels, though many of his works have been adapted for TV and radio, starring many familiar faces such as Alan Rickman, David Tennant, Bill Nighy and Tom Hollander. Alongside his literary career, Trollope also worked for some time for the Post Office and is credited with the introduction of the iconic post box to Britain. A memorial to Anthony Trollope was unveiled in Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey in 1993.
