  • Close Quarters

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 27 - Barsetshire
    It is, or would be if one bothered to think about it, a well-known fact that there are far more surnames than Christian names. A cursory inspection of the four London Telephone Directories is sufficient proof of the variety of surnames from the A.1. AAA Building Bracket to the Zzymbla who closes those massive and useful volumes. And useful not only in life but in death. For if one can avoid the ... 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, ...

  • A Double Affair

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 26 - Barsetshire
    The year waned and died amid the over-excitement of Christmas. To everyone’s joy the stopgap or locum went back to his own parish for a week and Mr. Choyce returned to his flock. During this time he was able to get estimates for the necessary repairs and painting and distempering for the vicarage and leave the rest in his affianced’s very capable hands. He also looked up a great many friends and ... En savoir plus

  • 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

  • Never Too Late

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 25 - Barsetshire
    “There are too many Friends of Everything about.”These words were spoken by the well-known novelist Mrs. Morland, in her comfortable but quite uninteresting house at High Rising, to Dr. Ford and the George Knoxes, the avant-garde as it were of a tea-party. Since we first met Mrs. Morland some twenty-odd years ago, that gifted creature had changed very little except that she was more vague and ... En savoir plus

  • Enter Sir Robert

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 24 - Barsetshire
    As it is some time since we were at Hatch End, we will take this opportunity of reminding our Reader (the one who says our books are so nice because it doesn’t matter which you read or where you open it as they are all exactly the same—as indeed they are, with a difference) that it is a small village in the valley of the Rising, which here flows through water-meadows. Hatch House, since 1721 the ... 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 ...

  • 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

  • Pomfret Towers

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 6 - Barsetshire
    Nutfield is quite the most delightful town in that part of England. Most of the land round it is owned by families who have remained rich enough not to be obliged to sell their estates, so the speculative builder has been kept at bay and the town is very little larger than it was in the eighteenth century. In 1847 a branch line of the railway was indeed, after terrific opposition, brought to ... 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

  • Northbridge Rectory

    par Angela Thirkell ...
    Collections Livre 10 - Barsetshire
    As everyone knows Northbridge High Street there is no need to describe it, so we will proceed to do so. Northbridge, a famous centre for the wool trade of the South in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, had gently declined ever since. It had indeed risen for a short period to eminence as a rotten borough, but now for more than a hundred years its calm had been unbroken. The town and its ... En savoir plus
