The proposed Reform Bill, the new railroads, and scientific advances are threatening upheaval on every front. Against this backdrop, the quiet drama of ordinary lives is played out by the novel's complexly portrayed characters--until the arrival of two outsiders further disrupts the town's equilibrium. Every bit as powerful and perceptive in our time as it was in the Victorian era, Middlemarch displays George Eliot's clear-eyed yet humane understanding of characters caught up in the mysterious unfolding of self-knowledge. In this elegant Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition, Rebecca Mead introduces the novel that shaped her life and reflects on its joys and its timeless relevance"-- $c Provided by publisher. 521 8 $a 1210L $b Lexile 526 0 $a Accelerated Reader $b UG $c 10.4 $d 64 $z 52114 650 0 $a Triangles (Interpersonal relations) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a City and town life $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social reformers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Married people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Young women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Scholars $v Fiction. 651 0 $a England $v Fiction. 941 $a 3 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240127011408.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207021844.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20210204020144.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FF5F0AF6B5B311E9B808B33C97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
