After leaving the British Post Office to run for Parliament in 1868, he shifted his focus entirely to writing following his electoral defeat. His prolific output included editing St Paul's Magazine, where many of his novels were serialized. His first major success was The Warden, leading to the beloved Barsetshire series, with Barchester Towers standing out as a comic masterpiece that solidified his literary reputation.
