If you loved Cranford and are having withdrawal symptoms then this is perfect. In fact, I believe better. Middlemarch is a beautiful novel which is one of my favourite books. It has everything you could wish for in a classic while still being a relevent, moving and often comical examination of what it is to be human.

Combining humour, rich symbolism and pointed social criticism, this is an unsentimental, yet affectionate portrait of rural life. Its protagonist, a man wrongly accused and exiled is given a chance to achieve true happiness through his care of an orphaned girl.

La vida de Silas volverá a tenir sentido cuando se hace cargo de la hija de una mujer que muere en la entrada de su casa. No sólo se transformará la existencia de nuestro protagonista, sino la del pueblo entero, que le ayudará en el cuidado de una niña que le hará recuperar aquello que nunca debió perder: la esperanza.

¿Cómo se explica la pasión de un hombre por una mujer con la que sabe que llevará una vida desgraciada? ¿Cómo podemos amar aquello que nos destruirá?

Sin embargo, una vision le anuncia que se casara con ella. Obra atipica en la produccion de George Eliot, El velo alzado, publicada en 1859 en la Blackwood s Edinburgh Magazine, es una nouvelle con sorprendentes elementos goticos y fantasticos que uno no suele asociar con la autora de Middlemarch. Pero el lector reconocera sin duda su huella en la sutileza y la profundidad del estudio de una personalidad tortuosa y en la compleja recreacion de un amor en el que conviven la fascinacion y la mezquindad.
