Middlemarch is a complex tale of idealism, disillusion, profligacy, loyalty and frustrated love. This penetrating analysis of the life of an English provincial town is set during the time of social unrest prior to the first Reform Bill of 1832. It is told through the lives of Dorothea Brooke and Dr Tertius Lydgate and includes a host of other paradigm characters who illuminate the condition of English life in the mid-nineteenth century. Henry James described Middkmarch as a `treasure-house of detail` while Virginia Woolf famously endorsed George Eliot`s masterpiece as `one of the few English novels written for grown-up people. Формат: 12,5 см x 19,5 см.

George Eliot drew on her own anguished childhood when she depicted the stormy relationship between Maggie and Tom Tulliver.

Both a sharp and observant picture of English rural life and a profoundly convincing analysis of a woman\'s psychology, The Mill...

But when his precious money is stolen and, shortly after, seeminglyand mysteriously replaced by the child Eppie, Silas is awakened to life by the redemptive power of love. George Eliot`s affectionate but unsentimental portrait of rural life combines irony, humour and sharp social comment. Above all, she...
