Anthony Trollope was one of the most successful, prolific and respected novelists of the Victorian era.

His perceptive novels remain relevant today, and his reputation continues to grow with each passing year. In 2015 we celebrated the bicentenary of his birth on 24th April, 1815.

The Trollope Society has a world-wide membership and exists to promote and publish Trollope's works, provide a forum for exploring his life, and encourage enjoyment of his writing for future generations.
