Synopsis
This volume gathers George Eliot's novels of English and Italian life. Typical works follow a carpenter and a Methodist preacher in a rural tragedy; a miller's daughter and her brother on the Floss; a miser weaver and an orphan; a Florentine scholar in the age of Savonarola; a radical in a Midlands election; the interlocking households of Middlemarch; and a Jewish visionary beside an English Gwendolen. Recurring subjects are vocation, sympathy, marriage, and the pressure of community on private choice. The book is the long fiction only, not the essays or the verse drama.
