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.

Edited with an Introduction and notes by ROSEMARY ASHTON

Her novels are among the greatest of the nineteenth century
