The fifth novel in the Chronicles of Barsetshire, The Small House at Allington, concerns the lives of the two Dale girls, Lily and Bell, who live at the Small House. While Bell is in love with the local doctor James Crofts, Lily is pursued by two men: the worldly, rich and handsome Adolphus Crosbie and the poor but honest Johnny Eames. With each determined to gain her hand in marriage, who will she choose? Enshrined as a literary classic, The Small House takes the listener on a delightful visit to rural England and presents an insightful, compassionate, and amusing examination of human nature, along with Trollope's signature flashes of genius.

A good story but not his best. A little bit plodding. The reading is fine for the middle and upper class folk but embarrassingly bad for the working class characters. Competition at last for Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins!
