Trollope Haul
A lovely gift of Trollopiana! dear Ann from Magus Books brought me this early Christmas present, bless 'er. Consisting of dozens of back-issues of the official publication of the Trollope Society, London. Exactly the sort of thing sure to pass many an otherwise unoccupied Winter's night.
I'm not even such a fan as to have read all forty-seven novels, and yet, this is exactly the kind of thing designed to inspire what I believe is now called, an "immersive experience."
And now, to scan all the articles for Christmas related material. Totally justifies accepting these if I can tell myself I'm just doing a little research for my Holiday readings. Yeah, that's what I'm doing.
