A review by sietz
Felix Holt, the Radical by George Eliot
3.0
Of course, anything by George Eliot is a gift.
But this novel is for hardcore fans only. It’s really quite dull as it goes into the deep depths of 1800s English law reform and the main character of Felix Holt is actually quite unlikeable.
Beautifully written of course - but there’s a reason this is probably her least read book.
