caitie_d 's review for:

Silas Marner by George Eliot

4.0

---

This book is slightly hard to get through in the beginning; however, there is something about the prose that closes part one and opens part two that completely draws you into the story and characters. George Eliot (aka the wonderful Mary Ann Evans) did a marvelous job at portraying the first Industrial Age of England and the lower classes of that time. Beautifully written and a wonderful read.
