Middlemarch
by George Eliot
The realism in this book is amazing. I'll admit that at times this book can be pretty thick to get through, but hidden in the journey are observations of humanity, of marriage, of weakness, and of life that Eliot describes so beautifully and accurately - observations I realized as I read them that I've made myself but never put into words.
This book took 861 pages to reach a two-paragraph, three sentence climax. And it was worth it! Worth it because of her realism, her flawed yet forgivable characters, and because of that perfect, poignant climax.
