An Autobiography: and Other Writings (Oxford World’s Classics), 2nd Edition by Anthony Trollope
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 500 KB
Overview: I hated the office. I hated my work…the only career in life within my reach was that of an author.’
This classic study of the working life of a professional writer is one of the best – and also one of the strangest – autobiographies ever written. After a miserable childhood and misspent youth, Trollope turned his life around at the age of twenty-six. By 1860 the ‘hobbledehoy’ had become both a senior civil servant and a best-selling novelist. He worked for the Post Office for many years and stood unsuccessfully for Parliament. Best-known for the two series of novels grouped loosely around the clerical and political professions, the Barsetshire and Palliser series, in his Autobiography Trollope frankly describes his writing habits. His apparent preoccupation with contracts, deadlines, and earnings, and his account of the remorseless regularity with which he produced his daily quota of words, has divided opinion ever since.
