Dorothea Brooke longs to do good, but marriage, ambition and provincial gossip test her every intention.
This Vintage Classics 150th anniversary gift edition, with an introduction by Zadie Smith, celebrates one of the most admired novels in English literature.
Dorothea Brooke is intelligent, idealistic and hungry for a meaningful life. Tertius Lydgate arrives in Middlemarch with medical ambition and reforming zeal. Around them, marriages, inheritances, debts, politics, gossip and moral compromise bind a whole provincial community together.
George Eliot explores love, disillusionment, scandal and private goodness with unmatched sympathy and intelligence.
First published in instalments from 1871, Middlemarch remains a profound novel about marriage, ambition, reform, religion, science and the hidden influence one life can have on another.
One of the BBC's 100 Novels That Shaped Our World, this edition is a beautiful classic gift for readers seeking Victorian fiction, literary classics and one of the great studies of the human heart.
