"Castle Richmond" (1860) is a novel by Anthony Trollope. It is set in southwestern Ireland at beginning of the Irish famine. Castle Richmond is situated on the banks of the Blackwater River in County Cork. The plot features the competition of two Protestant cousins of English origin, Owen and Herbert Fitzgerald, for the hand of Clara Desmond, the noble but impoverished daughter of the widowed Countess of Desmond, providing the novel’s principal dramatic interest.

"Castle Richmond" was the first of several novels by Trollope in which bigamy played an important role. The Irish famine and efforts by authorities to mitigate its effects are the subject of many scenes and the object of abundant commentary throughout. The famine also occasions more explicit religious commentary than is typical in novels by Trollope.

I enjoyed this reading a great deal. This is a very interesting novel, though Trollope was trying to do two things at once, and I am not sure he could really do both in the same book. He is both writing a first-hand account of the Irish famine and, well, a Trollope novel.

The performance is very good, but I am sure I heard birdsong in the background at times, and that was distracting.

An Excellent Reading of one of Trollope’s Irish Novels

I enjoyed the story but was distracted at times by background noise. Well written story about love and parental ambitions for their children.

Background noise throughout

This recording is peppered with distracting background noise and poor editing. Try playing at 1.1x speed for a more natural-sounding pace.

Another great story, but the performance left alot to be desired. There ws background noise, mistakes in reading, the reader stumbled in his lines several times.

Great Story, Poorly read

Maybe i've entirely romanticized this recording but I was completely charmed by its lack of polish. I got the impression that the narrator did his work at home, perhaps for no or little money, and sometimes near an open window. Seagulls can be heard. A song bird can be heard. A cat mews. I loved it all.

The novel itself I found not as satisfying as the dozens of other Trollope novels I've listened to. The love story is great but it sits uncomfortably next to material about the Irish potato famine. I was glad I read it, though. And my hat's off to the narrator who did a great job seemingly without a producer.

Strange Wonderful Recording

There is audible background noise-from birds chirping to a cat meowing. This is also one of the few trollope books that leave a lot left to be desired.

Recording is mediocre

In a time of rancor and villains, this Trollope story is an absolute tonic. More and more I worry that society tries to cast people who's motives we don't understand as outright villains; this story defies that inclination. Trollope's gentle storytelling gives us all the information we need, often tongue-in-cheek, without ever telling us how to judge. The story is quietly absorbing, I learned a bit about the Famine, and I have to say I really enjoyed the reader as well. The occasional bird chirps or gulls had me imagining the bucolic Irish countryside, a really enjoyable experience throughout!

A charming listen

Auugh! the reader has a lovely voice.... but he ruined this book with all the background noise in his home.

Excellent voice but amateur recording. I heard children, a cat, birds, and other background noises. The title repeated at the beginning of each chapter was annoying. Great voice though and a wonderful book.

Great performance, wonderful story. What’s not to like? Narrator has a gorgeous British accent and is easily understood by this CT Yankee.

Always love anything by Trollope
