The Duke's Children Complete (Oxford World's Classics)

Tarih ve Eleştiri

He was alone in the world, and there was no one of whom he could ask a question.After the sudden death of his wife, two years after he has left office as Prime Minister, the Duke of Omnium mustbecome deeply involved with his children for the first time. They vex him enormously: with school expulsions,vast gambling debts, and what he considers to be calamitous romantic attachments. He tries to compel them todo what he wants, but they are not so easy to manage.Even when his eldest child and heir, Lord Silverbridge, makes him proud by embarking upon a political career, theDuke grapples with heartache. For Silverbridge becomes a Conservative rather than a Liberal, flouting the familytradition. The relationship between father and son is drawn with remarkable subtlety, and the book as a wholebecomes a piercing, yet often humorous, exploration of change: how both the young and the old resist, tolerate,or embrace it.Trollope cut roughly 65,000 words, at a vulnerable moment in his career, to get the novel published, butconcluded rapidly that he had made a grievous error. After a painstaking reconstruction by a team ofresearchers, The Duke's Children, the final book in Trollope's famed Palliser series, can now be read the way he first intended. It is a masterpiece of Victorian fiction.
