The Warden Book Reviews
The Warden by Anthony Trollope Book Summary
Hiram's Hospital is an almshouse supported by a medieval charitable bequest to the Diocese of Barchester. The income maintains the almshouse itself, supports its twelve bedesmen, and, in addition, provides a comfortable abode and living for its warden. Mr Harding was appointed to this position through the patronage of his old friend the Bishop of Barchester, who is also the father of Archdeacon Grantly to whom Harding's older daughter, Susan, is married. The warden, who lives with his remaining child, an unmarried younger daughter Eleanor, performs his duties conscientiously. The story concerns the impact upon Harding and his circle when a zealous young reformer, John Bold, launches a campaign to expose the disparity in the apportionment of the charity's income between its object, the bedesmen, and its officer, Mr Harding. John Bold embarks on this campaign in a spirit of public duty despite his romantic involvement with Eleanor and previously cordial relations with Mr Harding. Bold starts a lawsuit and Mr Harding is advised by the indomitable Dr Grantly, his son-in-law, to stand his ground. Bold attempts to enlist the support of the press and engages the interest of The Jupiter (a newspaper representing The Times) whose editor, Tom Towers, pens editorials supporting reform of the charity, and presenting a portrait of Mr Harding as selfish and derelict in his conduct of his office. This image is taken up by commentators Dr Pessimist Anticant, and Mr Popular Sentiment, who have been seen as caricatures of Thomas Carlyle and Charles Dickens respectively.

The Warden. I read it as the first in a series. It was quite long and so wordy that it became tedious and boring. Best part was regarding the powerful press The Jupiter. Not unlike our modern press, full of power to ruin reputations and freeze the population into submission. Guess I'll try another in the series and hope for better results.
A Tidy Tale. To read Trollope's fiction is to slip easily into a bygone era. The Warden is a good introduction to his work.

It's Anthony Trollope at his best!. The first book of a series of five begins tamely enough but gets better and better as you read the next book and the next! You can't read just the one! It's like eating peanuts or potato chips! You can't stop at just one and you won't get full story till you read them all! Those of us who love the prolific Trollope love him for such writings as this! I thank the people who make these ebooks possible with all my heart! Wendy (shastalauren)
