About this listen

The American Senator, penned by Anthony Trollope in 1875, may not be his most celebrated work, but it offers a fascinating glimpse into rural English life, enriched with vivid fox hunting scenes. Central to the narrative is the anti-heroine Arabella Trefoil, whose ruthless pursuit of a husband reveals a complex character—both scathing and oddly sympathetic. Through the lens of the titular Senator, Trollope critiques the irrationalities of English society, making this novel a thought-provoking read that still resonates today.
