Synopsis of The Warden

Sumérgete en la tranquila atmósfera de la ciudad catedralicia de Barchester, que se ve perturbada cuando estalla un escándalo relacionado con los asuntos financieros de un asilo para ancianos administrado por la iglesia. En el consiguiente furor, Septimus Harding, el bienintencionado guardián del asilo, se enfrenta al pretendiente de su hija, el Dr. John Bold, un celoso reformador local. La situación no mejora cuando el abrasivo yerno de Harding, el archidiácono Grantly, entra en la refriega para defenderlo contra una campaña que Bold inicia en la prensa nacional. Esta novela, una visión afectuosa y satíricamente ingeniosa del funcionamiento de la Iglesia de Inglaterra, es también una sutil exploración de los derechos y errores de las cruzadas morales y, en su relato del drama personal intensamente sentido por Harding, una conmovedora representación del impacto privado de los asuntos públicos.
