Although The Small House at Allington, the fifth in Trollope's Barsetshire series, is primarily a love story, it mixes requited and unrequited love, disgrace, scandal and near-disgrace with a delightful leavening of wit and social satire in a complicated but lively plot that has delighted generations of readers.

Phineas Finn, a red-blooded young Irishman possesing charm and good looks is elected to Parliament by his local borough, and in London he wins the love of the influential Lady Laura Kennedy. With her help, his Parliamentary career advances, but this is secondary to the social and sexual intrigues...

Margaret Mackenzie, a spinster in her thirties, receives a large inheritance upon her brother's death.  But the money comes with unlooked-for responsibilities—especially a rash of unwelcome suitors.  Miss Mackenzie, whom Trollope described as "a very unattractive old maid" nevertheless has more to recommend her than her newfound wealth.

The fifth of Trollope’s six Barsetshire Chronicles, The Small House at Allington features a large cast of characters, most of whom embody the heartbreak of thwarted and unrequited love.

After the death of his Irish wife, Phineas Finn returns to London and to the House of Commons. But though drawn back apparently irresistibly, he never approaches politics with the zest of earlier days. What Trollope describes, in some of his most powerful writing, is a sad, at times almost sombre, progress towards maturity and self-wisdom.
