One of the most accomplished and prominent novels of the Victorian era, Middlemarch is an unsurpassed portrait of nineteenth-century English provincial life. Dorothea Brooke is a young woman of fervent ideals who yearns to effect social change yet faces resistance from the society she inhabits. In this epic in a small landscape, Eliot's large cast of precisely delineated characters and the rich tapestry of their stories result in a wise, compassionate, and astute vision of human nature. As Virginia Woolf declared, George Eliot "was one of the first English novelists to discover that men and women think as well as feel, and the discovery was of great artistic moment."

  • And now, it turns up that George Elliot is a woman!!! I didn't know it! when did this happen?

    The book is about a family in an ancient time. I love her style. Why did she have to say that she was a boy?

  • Maybe the assertion of the women the equal status is a bit out of fashion, but the norton edition are the best in terms of sources and critical mass.
