Anthony Trollope
A novel written during the mid-19th century, specifically in the Victorian era. The story centers around the lives of two closely linked families, the Dales of the Great House and the Dales of the Small House, particularly focusing on the widow Mrs. Dale and her daughters, Lily and Bell, who navigate social life and romantic entanglements in the rural setting of Allington.

The narrative begins by outlining the character of Christopher Dale, the current squire, giving a glimpse of his personality and the familial dynamics that shape the lives of the characters. In the subsequent chapters, we meet the two Dale sisters, who engage in lighthearted conversations that hint at their budding relationships and hints of rivalry with local clerks and gentlemen.
