Barchester Towers is the second novel in Anthony Trollope's series known as the "Chronicles of Barsetshire". Among other things it satirises the then raging antipathy in the Church of England between High Church and Evangelical adherents. Barchester Towers concerns the leading clergy of the cathedral city of Barchester. The much loved bishop having died, all expectations are that his son, Archdeacon Grantly, will succeed him. Instead, owing to the passage of the power of patronage to a new Prime Minister, a newcomer, the far more Evangelical Bishop Proudie, gains the see. His wife, Mrs Proudie, exercises an undue influence over the new bishop, making herself as well as the bishop unpopular with most of the clergy of the diocese. Her interference to veto the reappointment of the universally popular Mr Septimus Harding (protagonist of Trollope's earlier novel, The Warden) as warden of Hiram's Hospital is not well received, even though she gives the position to a needy clergyman, Mr Quiverful, with 14 children to support.

"Barchester Towers" by Anthony Trollope is the second novel in the "Chronicles of Barsetshire" series, offering a satirical look at the ecclesiastical and social dynamics of a fictional English cathedral city. The novel continues the story from "The Warden", focusing on the turbulent changes in the ecclesiastical hierarchy of Barchester. The central plot revolves around the appointment of a new bishop, Dr. Proudie, and his ambitious wife, who seek to reform the diocese and challenge the established clergy. Their attempts lead to a series of conflicts with traditionalists, including Mr. Harding, who faces personal and professional dilemmas. Trollope's keen observations of social and political intrigue, along with his richly drawn characters, make "Barchester Towers" a sharp and entertaining commentary on Victorian society. The novel combines humor, drama, and a detailed exploration of the complexities of church politics and local life.
