Trollope, Anthony: Rachel Ray. V1. 21 Apr 2013
Set in and around a small town in the South Hams of Devonshire, this is outwardly the most idyllic of all Anthony Trollope's novels. It offers Trollope's warmest and most intimate scenes of provincial bourgeois life, his most detailed rendition of the social and physical topography of an entire community, one of his most 'poetic' love-scenes, and a number of unusually rich and imaginative evocations of the pastoral beauty of the countryside. Regardless of their idyllic surroundings, however, the citizens of Baslehurst show themselves to be as implacably factious as any of Trollope's other social groups. The zest and intensity of their religious, political and class warfare make Rachel Ray one of the liveliest and most compact of Trollope's comedies.
