claudiaswisher 's review for:
Silas Marner
by George Eliot
Finally...the only books was assigned in school that I did not finish. Just a little late. Uneven narration...I can see why it is a challenge for young readers...the scenes where we are given back stories are clunky...as a teen, I would have skipped and lost a bit...a bit of the charms.
Silas Marner is forced to begin again and again. His future is stolen by others, and he keeps plodding forward. His friends turn on him? He moves and starts a new life. His gold is stolen? He mourns and starts over.
And then a golden child enters his life and everything changes...
Complicated twists that come together, and the reader smile with the last line. Good guys can finish first.
