Mrs Proudie, the warlike wife of the new Bishop of Barchester, brings the Reverend Slope into the Bishop's Palace to help dominate her husband and rule the local clergy. But Slope is a snake in the grass, determined to find a rich wife, to win advancement for himself, even to fight Mrs Proudie if necessary.
Their battle becomes a furious dance, involving rich, pretty Widow Bold, angry Archdeacon Grantly, man-eating Signora Neroni, gentle Mr Harding, confused Parson Quiverful and his fourteen noisy children.
This classic comic story is Trollope's most famous novel.

The greatest mistake any man ever made is to suppose that the good things of the world are not worth the winning.
Peace on earth and goodwill among men, are, like heaven, promises for the future
A man must be an idiot or else an angel who, after the age of forty, shall attempt to be just to his neighbours.
There is no happiness in love, except at the end of an English novel. But in wealth, money, houses, lands, goods, and chattels, in the good things of this world, yes, in them there is something tangible, something that can be retained and enjoyed.
