George Eliot's Middlemarch is a classic of Victorian literature that explores life in a provincial English town in the early 19th century. The novel follows the idealistic Dorothea Casaubon and the ambitious doctor Lydgate, whose dreams and aspirations collide with prejudice, personal mistakes, and the limitations of society.
The intelligent, educated Dorothea Casaubon, who married an elderly theologian, becomes increasingly disillusioned with her obstinate husband and increasingly admires the charm of his poor relative Will... The brilliant young doctor Lydgate does not suspect that he has become game, which the young beauty Rosamond is hunting in an ingenious way... Rosamond's brother Fred, a frivolous spendthrift, becomes increasingly entangled in debt - and does not even notice the feelings of his good friend Mary Garth...
Eliot masterfully reveals complex characters and raises themes of love, marriage, social reform and human nature. "Middlemarch" is a profound portrait of the era, which remains relevant and inspiring to this day.
