Description
Born in the same year as Queen Victoria (1819), George Eliot became a central figure in the culture of her reign. Yet she charted a course quite contrary to its constellations of feminine fulfillment. Alone among English 19th-century women writers, Eliot left the family circle to follow her own bohemian path. This powerful biography examines in detail Eliot's classic novels and illuminates the doubts, achievements, and tensions of her life, her work, and her century. of illustrations.
