Adam Bede is the moving story of three people troubled by unwise love.

The seemingly peaceful country village of Hayslope is the setting for this ambitious first novel by George Eliot.

In Daniel Deronda, George Eliot left behind the world of the Victorian middle classes that she explored so well in Middlemarch.

“If a women really believes herself to be a lower kind of being, she should place herself in subjection. If not, let her show her power of choosing something better.”

Middlemarch is perhaps the finest novel in the English language. Set in a provincial town at the time of the Great Reform Bill...

Middlemarch is a multilayered work centering around two expertly constructed characters…

Complex social interrelationships, and the struggles to hold fast to personal integrity in a materialistic and mean spirited age in England during the 1830s, are the focus of this novel.

Set in nineteenth-century England, the charm of this great novel of domestic realism lies chiefly in the magic by which the commonplace lives of the principal characters are transformed into lively pictures full of vital appeal.

Maggie Tulliver has two lovers: Philip Wakem, son of her father's enemy; and Stephen Guest, already promised to her cousin; but the love she wants most in the world is that of her brother Tom.

Romola was central to George Eliot’s career as a novelist and among her most colorful, fluent, and persuasive works.

It was her second book, Adam Bede, which secured George Eliot’s reputation as an author…

Silas Marner, a gentle linen weaver, is falsely accused of a heinous theft committed by his best friend. He exiles himself to the village of Raveloe where he works hard to accumulate a goodly sum of gold.

Silas Marner, embittered and disappointed in life and love, has retreated into solitude when fate takes his fortune from him and replaces it with a foundling child.

For 15 years Silas Marner, the lonely, friendless linen-weaver, has lived in exile, shunned by society...

Here is a tale straight from the fireside. We are compelled to follow the humble and mysterious figure of the linen weaver Silas Marner, on his journey from solitude and exile to the warmth and joy of family life.

Embittered by a false accusation, disappointed in friendship and love, the weaver Silas Marner retreats into a long twilight life alone with his loom. . . and his gold.
