Three Clerks, The by Anthony Trollope (1815 - 1882)Author: LibriVox
The Three Clerks was Trollopes sixth novel and was written mostly in railway carriages, since his work for the Post Office still entailed a good deal of travelling; to make life easier for himself, Trollope had devised what he called his tablet, a square block which he rested upon his knees in such a way that he could write in complete comfort. The story is drawn from his memories of his work (as a clerk) at the GPO in St Martin-le-Grand, and it is considered the most autobiographical of Trollopes novels a story of the differing fortunes of 3 young men working at Weights and Measures and their relationships with a family of 3 sisters.
