NEW EDITION
'She liked lies To lie readily and cleverly, recklessly and yet successfully, v^as, according to the lessons she had learned, a necessity in a woman'
Lizzie Eustace is young, beautiful, and widowed. Her determination to hold on to the Eustace family's diamond necklace in the face of legal harassment by her brother-in-law's solicitor entangles her in a series of crimes—apparent and real—and contrived love-affairs. Her cousin Erank, a Tory MP and struggling barrister, loyally assists her, to the distress of his fiancée, Lucy Morris. A pompous Under-Secretary of State, an exploitative and acquisitive American and her unhappy niece, a shady radical peer, and a brutal aristocrat are only some of the characters in this, one of Trollope's most engaging novels: part sensation fiction, part detective story, part political satire, and part ironic romance.
The Eustace Diamonds (1872) belongs to Trollope's Palliser series. Though often considered the least political of the... Tovább

'She liked lies To lie readily and cleverly, recklessly and yet successfully, v^as, according to the lessons she had learned, a necessity in a woman'
Lizzie Eustace is young, beautiful, and widowed. Her determination to hold on to the Eustace family's diamond necklace in the face of legal harassment by her brother-in-law's solicitor entangles her in a series of crimes—apparent and real—and contrived love-affairs. Her cousin Erank, a Tory MP and struggling barrister, loyally assists her, to the distress of his fiancée, Lucy Morris. A pompous Under-Secretary of State, an exploitative and acquisitive American and her unhappy niece, a shady radical peer, and a brutal aristocrat are only some of the characters in this, one of Trollope's most engaging novels: part sensation fiction, part detective story, part political satire, and part ironic romance.
The Eustace Diamonds (1872) belongs to Trollope's Palliser series. Though often considered the least political of the six novels, it is a highly revealing study of Victorian Britain, its colonial activities in Ireland and India, its veneration of wealth, and its pervasive dishonesty.
