Immerse yourself in 19th-century England with 'Middlemarch', a masterpiece by George Eliot. This Wordsworth Classics edition transports you to the life of a provincial town in times of social change, exploring themes such as the status of women, social expectations, and hypocrisy. Through the lives of Dorothea Brooke and Dr. Tertius Lydgate, Eliot weaves a rich and complex narrative that has been hailed as one of the best novels in English.
Mary Ann Evans, known by her pen name George Eliot, was an English novelist, poet, journalist, translator, and one of the leading writers of the Victorian era. She wrote seven novels: Adam Bede (1859), The Mill on the Floss (1860), Silas Marner (1861), Romola (1862–1863), Felix Holt, the Radical (1866), Middlemarch (1871–1872) and Daniel Deronda (1876). Her novels are known for their realism, psychological insight, sense of place, and detailed depiction of the countryside. Middlemarch was described by the novelist Virginia Woolf as "one of the few English novels written for grown-up people" and by Martin Amis and Julian Barnes as the greatest novel in the English language.
