Middlemarch by George Eliot
5.0
"It is a narrow mind which cannot look at a subject from various points of view."
I read this book together with @blogliteraturese and 435 others! This enriched my experience with the book & kept me in check with the reading goals for 2 months. What a journey! I haven't read a classic nor such a big book in quite a long time... that will change now, I had the best time.
Eliot wrote this book in 1871 but the characters are so modern, so personable... Coming from a provincial life background, I can so relate to many of the characters - they're hopeful, driven and oh, so flawed!
The work with such a fun and cheeky narrator is something I don't remember having had contact with before. There's so much to digest, to laugh, to feel sorry for... highly recommend, don't get disheartened by its size, it's worth the work ❤️ lots of plot twists, well built characters, themes that are modern and exciting to read about.
