@davidfrum I might be over-rating Trollope b/c I value social information. He's less of an artist than Eliot, Hardy or even Thackeray.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@davidfrum No question Trollope overwrote. But aren't his parliamentary novels a kind of precursor to Patriots?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@davidfrum No, but I think writing Patriots should make you appreciate what Trollope was trying to do.3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@HeerJeet@davidfrum He has a chapter called "results" where he works out how much money he made from each novel against the time invested.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@StephenMarche @davidfrum His work discipline was amazing. Although if he had been less mercenary might have polished novels more.
