Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
The Macdermots of Ballycloran
First Published, 1847.

This is Anthony Trollope’s first published novel; the tragic story of a family in decline. It was not initially a success. He commented:

“As to the plot itself, I do not know that I ever made one so, good, - or, at any rate, one so susceptible of pathos.... The Macdermots is a good novel, and worth reading by anyone who wishes to understand what Irish life was before the potato disease, the famine, and the Encumbered Estates Bill.” -- Autobiography
