Description: One of the BBC's '100 Novels That Shaped Our World' One of the few English novels written for grown - up people Virginia Woolf George Eliot's nuanced and moving novel is a masterly evocation of connected lives changing fortunes and human frailties in a provincial community. Peopling its landscape are Dorothea Brooke a young idealist whose search for intellectual fulfilment leads her into a disastrous marriage to the pedantic scholar Casaubon; Dr Lydgate whose pioneering medical methods combined with an imprudent marriage to the spendthrift beauty Rosamond threaten to undermine his career; and the religious hypocrite Bulstrode hiding scandalous crimes from his past. Edited with an Introduction and notes by Rosemary Ashton
