A review by micheleseverson
Middlemarch by George Eliot
5.0
George Eliot treats her characters so compassionately and respectfully. They're flawed and make mistakes but you never lose your sympathy for the naive idealist Dorothea or the ambitious and betrayed Lydgate.
Middlemarch captures human nature so beautifully and brilliantly well. The moral decisions made and mulled over are stirring; when I read this book, I felt the pain and delight of the characters quite piercingly as they grappled with the wrongs and hardships and small joys of life.
