Forlagsbeskrivelse af North America af Anthony Trollope
Though best known as a novelist, Anthony Trollope was also a prolific writer of non-fiction works. ‘North America’ is a study of the country at a time of great change, as observed by Trollope during the height of the Civil War. ‘North America’ offers insight and observations from Trollope on everything from his first impressions of the Mississippi River and the Niagara Falls, to his thoughts on the culture and politics of North America at the time. A fascinating snapshot in time of North America, as seen through the eyes of a much-loved novelist.
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.
