  • High Rising

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 1 - Barsetshire
    The headmaster’s wife twisted herself round in her chair to talk to Mrs. Morland, who was sitting in the row just behind her.‘I can’t make out,’ she said reflectively, ‘why all the big boys seem to be at the bottom of preparatory schools and the small ones at the top. All those lower boys who got prizes were quite large, average children, but when we get to the upper forms they all look about ... En savoir plus

  • The Demon in the House

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 3 - Barsetshire
    When Tony Morland wasn’t at school he lived with his mother in the country. His father had died so long ago that he couldn’t remember him, so he just thought that fathers were things other people had. As his three elder brothers were usually abroad or at sea, he missed the fraternal snubbing which is supposed to improve the character. His mother sometimes tried to be a little unkind to him, ...

  • Wild Strawberries

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 2 - Barsetshire
    The Vicar of St. Mary’s, Rushwater, looked anxiously through the vestry window which commanded a view of the little gate in the churchyard wall. Through this gate the Leslie family had come to church with varying degrees of unpunctuality ever since the vicar had been at Rushwater, nor did it seem probable that they had been more punctual before his presentation to the living. It was a tribute to ... En savoir plus

  • August Folly

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 4 - Barsetshire
    The little village of Worsted, some sixty miles west of London, is still, owing to the very defective railway system which hardly attempts to serve it, to a great extent unspoilt. To reach it you must change at Winter Overcotes where two railway lines cross. Alighting from the London train on the high level, you go down a dank flight of steps to the low level. Heavy luggage and merchandise are ... En savoir plus

  • Summer Half

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 5 - Barsetshire
    The sudden collapse into complete senility of that licensed old impostor, Mr Bradford, had made it possible for the new headmaster to make some changes in the staff and replace him by a young man, not long down from the University, and Colin Keith was the man. Mr Birkett, who had previously been headmaster of the preparatory school at Southbridge, had been offered the headmastership of the senior ... En savoir plus

  • Growing Up

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 12 - Barsetshire
    TO the youth of England, except to that small and misguided section who prefer model aeroplanes to model railways, the station at Winter Overcotes, as all students of Barsetshire know, represents History and Romance in their highest form, for here is one of the few remaining survivals of the main or high level line crossing the low level or local line. Every right-minded little boy who has ... En savoir plus

  • Marling Hall

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 11 - Barsetshire
    Marling Hall stands on a little eminence among what would in more golden days have been called well-wooded parkland. Owing to death duties and other ameliorative influences a number of its fine oaks and elms have been at various times cut down and sold. Those that remain are dying from the head downwards in a disconcerting way for want of woodmen, though even Dean Swift did not have large gaunt ... En savoir plus

  • Miss Bunting

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 14 - Barsetshire
    The great Duke of Omnium, as is well known, not only disliked railways but refused to acknowledge their existence. After the death of the old Duke’s successor, formerly Mr. Plantagenet Palliser, the next Duke found it necessary to come into line with the times and even to sell land, but by this time the network of railway that connects the outlying parts of the far-flung county of Barset was ...

  • Happy Return

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 21 - Barsetshire
    It will not, we hope, surprise our readers to hear that Lady Cora Waring, formerly Lady Cora Palliser, only daughter of the Duke of Omnium, wife of Sir Cecil Waring of Beliers Priory, was expecting what used to be called an interesting event. Not that the event was very imminent, but her Ladyship was so puffed up about it that her husband accused her of being a baby-snob. To which she replied that ... En savoir plus

  • Cheerfulness Breaks In: A Barsetshire War Survey

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 9 - Barsetshire
    To all those who had admired and disliked the lovely Rose Birkett it appeared (with the greatest respect for the Royal Navy) quite inevitable that she should marry a naval man. As the elder daughter of the Headmaster of Southbridge School she had every opportunity for trying the effect of her charms on as many as three hundred and twenty-seven members of the opposite sex, ranging from the newest ...

  • The Brandons

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 7 - Barsetshire
    “I wonder who this is from,” said Mrs. Brandon, picking a letter out of the heap that lay by her plate and holding it at arm’s length upside down. “It is quite extraordinary how I can’t see without my spectacles. It makes me laugh sometimes because it is so ridiculous.”In proof of this assertion she laughed very pleasantly. Her son and daughter, who were already eating their breakfast, exchanged ...

  • The Duke’s Daughter

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 20 - Barsetshire
    Deep as had been the county’s interest in the marriage of Mr. Adams the wealthy ironmaster and Lucy Marling, daughter of old Squire Marling, even deeper was its curiosity about their future. Some felt that though such a marriage was condoned, nay fully justified, by Mr. Adams’s renunciation of his own political party and his generous support of the Barchester Conservative Association, it should ...
