Returning Home is a novel written by Anthony Trollope and first published in 1867. The story revolves around the character of Mary Lowther, a young woman who has been living in Italy with her father for several years. Mary's father dies suddenly, leaving her alone and uncertain about her future. She decides to return to her childhood home in England and live with her aunt and uncle. Mary's arrival in England is met with mixed reactions from her family and the local community. Her uncle and aunt are happy to see her, but her cousin, Caroline, is jealous of the attention Mary receives. Mary's childhood friend, John Grey, also welcomes her back, but she soon realizes that he has feelings for her that go beyond friendship. As Mary settles into her new life in England, she must navigate the complexities of family relationships and societal expectations. She also struggles with her own feelings for John and her desire for independence. Returning Home is a classic Victorian novel that explores themes of love, duty, and the challenges of returning home after being away for an extended period. Trollope's writing is characterized by his attention to detail and his ability to create complex and nuanced characters. The novel offers a glimpse into the social norms and expectations of Victorian England, while also providing a timeless exploration of human emotions and relationships.In the first month of her hurry and flurry Mrs. Arkwright was a happy woman. She would see her mother again and her sisters. It was now four years since she had left them on the quay at Southampton, while all their hearts were broken at the parting. She was a young bride then, going forth with her new lord to meet the stern world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
