Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was an English novelist of the Victorian era. Among his best-known works is a series of novels collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which revolves around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. "Ayala`s Angel" is a novel that focuses on two orphaned sisters, Lucy and Ayala Dormer, Ayala especially, and their trials, with their relatives. It was written as a stand-alone novel rather than as part of a series, though several of the minor characters appear in other novels by Trollope.
