The Collected Works of Trollope: Bassett's Last Chronicle (set Volume 1 and 2)

About This Novel
This book is the last novel in the "Barsettshire Chronicle" series of novels. This book takes a check lost by Mr. Soames as the main line and the love of two young couples as the secondary line. It narrates a civil dispute that occurred in the small British town of Bassetshire in 1841. A poor priest was inexplicably involved in a theft case. This was a trivial matter, but Trollope made a detailed description of the life values of the British society at that time around this trivial matter. Although the story is small, and the protagonists are ordinary, and some even have low status, the author uses such an angle and style to capture the readers' hearts. This little incident sticks closely to the British society described by the author, making anyone who reads it feel like they are actually there and resonate strongly with it.
