The arrival of a new bishop in Barchester, accompanied by his formidable wife and ambitious chaplain, Obadiah Slope, sets the town in turmoil as Archdeacon Grantly declares 'War, war, internecine war!' on Bishop Proudie and his supporters. The livelihood of Mr Harding, the saintly hero of \u003cem\u003eThe Warden\u003c\/em\u003e, is once more under threat, but clerical warfare finds itself tangled up in the wayward (and sometimes perverse) desires of the many courtships, seductions, and romances of the book. Who will marry Eleanor Bold? Can any man resist the charms of the exotically beautiful 'La Signora Madeline Vesey Neroni'? Will the oily Mr Slope finally get his comeuppance?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fiction","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":42967479419104,"sku":"Books:9780199665860n","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/5911\/6768\/files\/81pyYf0XYCL._SY522.jpg?v=1766254974","url":"https:\/\/theswordandshovel.com\/products\/barchester-towers","provider":"Sword \u0026 Shovel (403)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
