What happens when the esteemed head of a family -- a judge, no less -- announces he is leaving a forty-year marriage to marry his mistress? And what if that mistress is hardly classic "mistress material" -- but a spirited, accomplished young woman who is -- to his family's universal dismay -- immensely likeable?Marrying the Mistress is quintessential Trollope with a new perspective: that of the men in the family. Here are sons who could envision themselves being tempted by their father's new bride; mothers who cling forever to primacy in their sons' affection; teenagers with insights clearer than their parents'. Joanna Trollope combines her trademark sensitivity with an unsentimental honesty that makes this book her most true to life ever.Joanna Trollope is the author of 'Marrying the Mistress (Wheeler Large Print Compass Series)' with ISBN 9781568959108 and ISBN 1568959109.
