Description
In "An Autobiography" (1883), Trollope turns his eye inward, examining his rich and diverse life-his troubled youth, his failed political career, and his unique writing process-this work proves to be as insightful as it is entertaining. A classic in itself, "An Autobiography" is a revealing account of one of the 19th century's most enigmatic authors.
