Henry Jones, an unprepossessing London insurance clerk, knows that
his uncle has disinherited him. The old man's will, made out at the
last minute in favour of Henry's charming cousin Isabel Brodrick,
lies neatly folded in a well-thumbed volume of sermons in his
book-room; Henry saw him put it there before he died. Unfortunately
nobody else knows where the will is, and Henry stands to lose
everything by making the knowledge public. Cousin Henry, first
published in 1879, is one of the most unusual and intriguing of
Trollope's shorter novels and its unlikely hero is a timid coward
consumed by guilt. But Trollope's handling of his character and
dilemma is masterly in its insight and compassion; he knew he had
nothing quite like it elsewhere in his fiction. ABOUT THE SERIES:
