Samenvatting:

"The Way We Live Now", published in 1875, is a great satire of Victorian society and one of Anthony Trollope’s later and more highly regarded works.

"The Way We Live Now" is a tale of a great financier's fraudulent machinations in the railway business and his daughter's ill-use at the hands of a grasping lover. This novel is a classic in the literature of money and a ripping good read as well, a novel about a society corrupted by finance, one in which money holds sway and everyone is fantasising about getting rich quick.
