Description

Doctor Thorne is the third book in Anthony Trollope's Chronicles of Barsetshire series. When their father dies, Doctor Thomas Thorne and his younger, ne'er-do-well brother Henry are left to fend for themselves. Doctor Thorne begins to establish a medical practice, while Henry seduces Mary Scatcherd, the sister of stonemason Roger Scatcherd. When Scatcherd finds out that Mary has become pregnant, he seeks out Henry and kills him in a fight. The book explores the themes of the consequences of illegitimacy, alcohol, and finding love outside one's social class.
