      The Penguin English Library Edition of Middlemarch by George Eliot 'She did not know then that it was Love who had come to her briefly as in a dream before awaking, with the hues of morning on his wings - that it was Love to whom she was sobbing her farewell as his image was banished by the blameless rigour of irresistible day' George Eliot's most ambitious novel is a masterly evocation of diverse lives and changing fortunes in a provincial community. Peopling its landscape are Dorothea Brooke, a young idealist whose search for intellectual fulfillment leads her into a disastrous marriage to the pedantic scholar Casaubon; the charming but tactless Dr Lydgate, whose marriage to the spendthrift beauty Rosamund and pioneering medical methods threaten to undermine his career; and the religious hypocrite Bulstrode, hiding scandalous crimes from his past. As their stories interweave, George Eliot creates a richly nuanced and moving drama, hailed by Virginia Woolf as 'one of the few English novels written for adult people'. The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.

    • 3 masterpieces from one of the Victorian era's most brilliant and celebrated feminist novelists--George Eliot, ne Mary Ann Evans. Middlemarch, her most well-known work, paints a rich and varied portrait of English society. Eliot focuses especially on the idealistic Dorothea Brooke, a woman who, lacking a creative outlet of her own, dedicates herself to her husband's legacy. In Silas Marner, a tale filled with mystery and emotion, an embittered man retreats from the outside world, thinking only of work and money. Then his wealth is stolen from him-and a young foundling comes into his life and changes everything. Also included: the short story Amos Barton, which heralded Eliot's arrival as a writer when it was published in Blackwood's magazine in 1857.
