Phineas Finn
A 2018 Audie Award Finalist for Best Literary Fiction & Classics Narration
Winner of an AudioFile Earphones Award
Phineas Finn, a handsome young Irishman of twenty-three, comes to England to make his fortune in parliamentary politics. But despite all his aspirations, Finn is haunted by ethical questions as his personal convictions conflict with his duty towards his party. Loyalty versus honor, love versus money, and privacy versus prominence: the eponymous hero faces a variety of dilemmas as he navigates his way through the House of Commons.
The second installment of Trollope’s celebrated Palliser series, Phineas Finn is a delightful and humorous look at the complexity of human relationships and the politics surrounding the Second Reform Bill of the 1860s.
