rianlion 's review for:

Daniel Deronda by George Eliot

5.0

---

Though Eliot has a tendency to be verbose, I really liked her even-handed treatment of all of the (main) characters. It felt very balanced and panoramic to focus on numerous characters in turns. The story was fairly dramatic and pulled me along, even through the descriptive parts. It took me a lot less time than I thought it would to read the 900 or so pages in the edition I have.
