Other Fiction Trollope, Anthony: Rachel Ray, v.1, 18 Jan 2008.

[Patricia]

A novel of 1863.

From Biblio.com:

“Trollope's belief that reading novels was the ideal way for women to "learn what was expected from them, and what to expect when loves come" informs this charming depiction of the romance between an innocent young woman from a small town and a brash young man from London. Luke Rowan, a brewer, falls in love with Rachel Ray, but the match is opposed not only by Rachel's mother (an evangelical enthusiast who finds Luke too worldly) but by the brewery-owner's wife who wants Luke for one of her daughters. This novel is somewhat unusual for Trollope because it concerns not the titled and monied classes, but tradesmen and people of small means.”
