In "Christmas at Thompson Hall & Other Christmas Stories," Anthony Trollope masterfully weaves together a collection of charming narratives that illuminate the complexities of human relationships during the festive season. His prose exhibits a keen wit and an astute understanding of social dynamics, embodying the Victorian ethos while simultaneously challenging its conventions. Through rich character development and engaging plots, Trollope invokes themes of generosity, familial bonds, and the interplay between social status and Christmas spirit, all of which are presented with a crispness that endears his work to contemporary readers. Trollope, a prominent figure in 19th-century literature, is known for his astute observations of English society, which are often reflected in his extensive body of work. His experiences navigating the social strata of Victorian England and his own heartfelt reflections on the significance of Christmas during a time of personal loss offer a poignant backdrop to these tales. This collection emerged during a period of social change, marking Trollope's intent to blend entertainment with deeper moral inquiries while engaging with the reader's sensibilities. "Christmas at Thompson Hall" is a timeless reminder of the power of storytelling to engage with themes of fellowship and introspection. Readers seeking an authentic taste of Victorian sentiments will find in this collection not just holiday cheer, but also a profound exploration of character and community. It is an essential addition to any literary canon that celebrates the spirit of Christmas through the deft hand of a master storyteller.

Britannula, off the coast of New Zealand, is a thriving republic. Three decades ago the government of energetic young men decided that compulsory euthanasia after the age of 67 would spare unnecessary suffering and state expense. But now, in 1980, some of those once-young politicians are now elder statesmen, facing very significant birthdays... Trollope's only science-fiction novel, The Fixed Period is a satire on utopian dreams which he published in his own 67th year.

Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. He wrote penetrating novels on political, social, and gender issues and conflicts of his day. In 1867 Trollope left his position in the British Post Office to run for Parliament as a Liberal candidate in 1868. After he lost, he concentrated entirely on his literary career. While continuing to produce novels rapidly, he also edited the St Paul''s Magazine, which published several of his novels in serial form. His first major success came with The Warden (1855) - the first of six novels set in the fictional county of Barsetshire. The comic masterpiece Barchester Towers (1857) has probably become the best-known of these.
