About this ebook
Her novels capture the pastoral setting of old England: a countryside still devoid of railways and the bustle of city life outside of London. The natures of her characters are psychologically complex and fully developed as they struggle over moral duty, love, vice, and rebirth. Many of her characters strive to do what is right but instead reflect the adage that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Contents:
Middlemarch
The Mill on the Floss
Silas Marner
The Lifted Veil
George Eliot
George Eliot (1819–1880), born Mary Ann Evans, was an English writer best known for her poetry and novels. She grew up in a conservative environment where she received a Christian education. An avid reader, Eliot expanded her horizons on religion, science and free thinkers. Her earliest writings included an anonymous English translation of The Life of Jesus in 1846 before embracing a career as a fiction writer. Some of her most notable works include Adam Bede (1859), The Mill on the Floss(1860) and Silas Marner.
