As for his handling of the servants and working class people generally they are really just caricatures. No one like Nicholas Higgins could exist in his world. And then there is the religious element. There is churchgoing in Trollope but only so that the sermons can be slept through. Margaret Hale believes that she will have to answer for what she has done with her life. As for the grand Love Scene, it is a little underwhelming but this seems to have been the result of serial publication. The final scene in the TV series is a big improvement.Shandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00785187902651797202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-57070456982746241532019-07-11T14:51:56.046+01:002019-07-11T14:51:56.046+01:00So sorry about the thumb and hope your trip south ...So sorry about the thumb and hope your trip south is a lot safer and more pleasant!Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111736625664327019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-40497531427363330542019-07-11T12:41:55.674+01:002019-07-11T12:41:55.674+01:00Have you told the doctor?
