Overview

Part Two Of Two Parts

THE SMALL HOUSE AT ALLINGTON introduces Trollope's most charming heroine, Lily Dale, onto the Barsetshire scene. Lily is the niece of Squire Dale, an idiosyncratic bachelor entrenched in the "Great House" at Allington.

Dale's sister-in-law lives at the adjacent "Small House" with her two daughters, one of whom is Lily. Relations between the two houses and the romantic entanglements of the girls drive the story.
