«He Knew He Was Right» is Anthony Trollope's Victorian novel, published by Penguin in paperback (864 pages, in English).
The plot follows Louis Trevelyan, whose jealousy towards his wife Emily puts their marriage at risk. Trollope portrays the protagonist's decline and, in parallel, Victorian society, with women who question obedience and defend their independence. The narrative thus explores trust, doubt and paranoia.
The work originally appeared in 1869; this edition, with an introduction by Frank Kermode, was released on March 4, 2004. The cover uses images from the BBC television series.
For those who enjoy Victorian classics and novels of psychological and social portraiture.
