Description

"He Knew He Was Right" by Anthony Trollope unfolds the tragic tale of Louis Trevelyan, a man whose obsessive jealousy unravels his marriage and his life. Confident in his suspicion about his wife Emily's fidelity, Trevelyan's relentless pursuit of control and vindication leads him down a path of emotional turmoil and isolation. Set against a rich tapestry of Victorian society, the novel explores themes of trust, power, and the destructive nature of unwarranted suspicion, offering a deep psychological portrait within a compelling family drama.

Author

Anthony Trollope (1815–1882) spent his days as a Post Office surveyor and his early hours at the novel — a clerk's discipline that produced an English county of clergy and a later London of money. Barchester Towers is the church as weather: preferment, gossip, a bishop's wife. The Way We Live Now is the same eye on speculation and the social lie. He wrote without apology for the method. Church, vote, and marriage sit in the same air.
