Nina Balatka by Anthony Trollope explores social life and customs, interfaith marriage, history.
Nina Balatka is a work by Anthony Trollope. Its subjects include Social life and customs, Interfaith marriage, History.
From the opening pages: “Anthony Trollope was an established novelist of great renown when _Nina Balatka_ was published in 1866, twenty years after his first novel. Except for _La Vendee_, his third novel, set in France during the Revolution, all his previous works were set in England or Ireland and dealt with the upper levels of society: the nobility and the landed gentry (wealthy or impoverished), and a few well-to-do merchants--people several strata above the social levels of the characters popularized by his contemporary Dickens. Most of Trollope's early novels were set in the countryside or in provincial towns, with occasional forays into London. The first of his political novels, _Can You Forgive Her_, dealing with the Pallisers was published in 1864, two years before _Nina_. By the time he began writing _Nina_, shortly after a tour of Europe, Trollope was a master at chronicling the habits, foibles, customs, and ways of life of his chosen subjects.”
