He Knew He Was Right is one of Anthony Trollope's most psychologically sustained novels, examining jealousy, pride, and the destructive force of wounded certainty within Victorian marriage.

The novel centres on Louis Trevelyan, whose suspicion of his wife's conduct gradually hardens into obsession, isolating him from family and society. Trollope renders this descent with unusual patience, allowing small social misunderstandings to expand into irrevocable estrangement. Alongside the central domestic drama, a broad cast of secondary characters provides tonal contrast, revealing the varied social structures-legal, financial, and familial-that shape individual conduct in nineteenth-century England.
