Credits E-text prepared by Andrew Turek and revised by Joseph E. Loewenstein, M.D.,
Summary "The Small House at Allington" by Anthony Trollope is a novel written during the mid-19th century, specifically in the Victorian era. The story centers around the lives of two closely linked families, the Dales of the Great House and the Dales of the Small House, particularly focusing on the widow Mrs. Dale and her daughters, Lily and Bell, who navigate social life and romantic entanglements in the rural setting of Allington. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the historical context of the Dales family, showcasing their long-standing connection to Allington and their social status. The narrative begins by outlining the character of Christopher Dale, the current squire, giving a glimpse of his personality and the familial dynamics that shape the lives of the characters. In the subsequent chapters, we meet the two Dale sisters, who engage in lighthearted conversations that hint at their budding relationships and hints of rivalry with local clerks and gentlemen. The opening portion sets up a rich tapestry of social interactions, familial responsibilities, and the complexities of love, hinting at the ensuing dramas that will unfold.
