Silas Marner by George Eliot

4.0

This book was probably the shortest book I've read in ages but it was very eloquent. the other book I've read by George Eliot - Middlemarch - was filled with some pretty forgettable side characters, a narrators voice that left little to interpretation because it was so didactic, and a length and verbiage that swayed between intense worldbuilding and just being too #$%&ing long. Silas Marner is, excepting the better parts, its complete opposite. I really enjoyed it, excepting the very very end
