Lady Anna
Published in 1874, 'Lady Anna' by Anthony Trollope explores themes of enforced marriage and social inequality within a backdrop of Radical politics. The novel follows Countess Lovel's struggle to validate her title and her daughter Anna's legitimacy after her husband reveals he has another wife. Anna's defiance against her mother's wishes leads her to fall in love with a journeyman tailor, Daniel Thwaite. Despite its initial poor reception, Trollope regarded it as his best work, highlighting its intense emotional depth and social commentary.
