Doctor Thorne

"Doctor Thorne," the third book in Anthony Trollope's beloved Chronicles of Barsetshire, delves into themes of class, inheritance, and romance. The story centers on the upstanding but impoverished Doctor Thorne and his niece, Mary, who is secretly in love with Frank Gresham, heir to a dwindling estate. The plot thickens when it is revealed that Mary might inherit a large fortune, setting off a cascade of societal and familial expectations about whom Frank should marry for financial salvation. This novel brilliantly tackles the constraints of social standings and the pursuit of personal happiness.
