"Ayala's Angel" (1878) is a novel by Anthony Trollope. The story focuses on two orphaned sisters, Ayala and Lucy Dormer, and their trials, first with their relatives, then of the heart. As in most Trollope novels, pages are given over to subplots related to the main plot. Excerpt from the book: "It was now the beginning of February. As Tom and his uncle had walked from Somerset House the streets were dry and the weather fine; but, as Mr. Dosett had remarked, the wind was changing a little out of the east and threatened rain.

This comprehensive novel consists of three subplots which interlink to form the whole and supply a trio of targets at which Trollope aims his proselytising pen. The first treats on the courtship of a woman by a man whom she does not love and with whom she is not compatible. Mary Lowther will not accept such a marriage of dishonesty. The second deals with the plight of a young woman who has fallen prey to the wiles of an evil seducer and subsequently adopts a life of prostitution.

In this world of bribes, vendettas, and swindling, in which heiresses are gambled and won, Trollope's characters embody all the vices: Lady Carbury is 'false from head to foot'; her son Felix has 'the instincts of a horse, not approaching the higher sympathies of a dog'; and Melmotte - the colossal figure who dominates the book - is a 'horrid, big, rich scoundrel...a bloated swindler...a vile city ruffian'. But as vile as he is, he is considered one of Trollope's greatest creations.

Dorothea Brooke is an ardent idealist who represses her vivacity and intelligence for the cold, theological pedant Casaubon. One man understands her true nature: the artist Will Ladislaw. But how can love triumph against her sense of duty and Casaubon’s mean spirit? Meanwhile, in the little world of Middlemarch, the broader world is mirrored: the world of politics, social change, and reforms, as well as betrayal, greed, blackmail, ambition, and disappointment.

Dorothea Brooke is an ardent idealist who represses her vivacity and intelligence for the cold, theological pedant Casaubon. One man understands her true nature: the artist Will Ladislaw. But how can love triumph against her sense of duty and Casaubon’s mean spirit? Meanwhile, in the little world of Middlemarch, the broader world is mirrored: the world of politics, social change, and reforms, as well as betrayal, greed, blackmail, ambition, and disappointment.

Not my favorite Trollope
The story isn't terribly compelling, though I've wonders if Trollope was expressing his ideas about British politics through the mouth of the senator. The narrator also didn't do too much for me. Timothy West's narrations of Trollope are far superior.

Loved it
I’ve read most of Anthony Trollope’s works but had missed this one until now. It contains everything I love about him as a writer. Great character arcs, sympathetic characters (especially women), a great window into the mid to late 19th c. I hadn’t really liked this narrator in the past but I grew to love her by the end!

Enjoy it very much
Some people criticize the narrator, but i think she is great. Perhaps at beginning, you may not get used to her narration, more you listen, more you realize how good it is.

Interesting characters and stories
It took me a while to unravel the plots. The bold maiden out for not love but a rich husband, the modest maiden who rejects riches in favor of a man she loves. Those are the two heroines. In the background are the culture , the regional economy, and the dealings of the church men over which the American Senator is the self- appointed critic. Three main plots.
