The 800 page novel, it took me almost 9 days to finish reading it. Eliot’s writing is witty and sublime. This book examines multiple themes such as the role of education in the lives of characters and how it affects them.

I enjoyed reading your post on ‘Middlemarch’, as well as the comments above. I read it quite a few years ago and your review has made me want to read it again.
I’m now following your blog for more inspiration! ]]> http://readingbooks.blog/2015/02/19/book-review-middlemarch-by-george-eliot/#comment-3951 Sat, 21 Feb 2015 14:26:58 +0000 https://amandeepmittal.wordpress.com/?p=2645#comment-3951 Thank you for the encouragement! 🙂 ]]> http://readingbooks.blog/2015/02/19/book-review-middlemarch-by-george-eliot/#comment-3950 Fri, 20 Feb 2015 15:08:19 +0000 https://amandeepmittal.wordpress.com/?p=2645#comment-3950 You’re right, gender baseness should not affect literature, it is proven time and time again. Thanks for the appreciation 🙂 Go on and read a classic; do tell me, which one you end up reading. There are too many books to read. ]]> http://readingbooks.blog/2015/02/19/book-review-middlemarch-by-george-eliot/#comment-3949 Fri, 20 Feb 2015 10:59:20 +0000 https://amandeepmittal.wordpress.com/?p=2645#comment-3949 Now you do know that George Eliot was actually a woman by the name of Mary Ann Evans? It is amazing to me that women were not seen as having enough brains to be able to write a novel and yet several of them did. Not one i have read, but i believe i found your blog by the fact that you read ‘proper books’. I really should get down to reading a classic, still not done so – too many books, too little time! ]]> http://readingbooks.blog/2015/02/19/book-review-middlemarch-by-george-eliot/#comment-3948 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 16:33:08 +0000 https://amandeepmittal.wordpress.com/?p=2645#comment-3948 One day I’ll get to it 😉 ]]> http://readingbooks.blog/2015/02/19/book-review-middlemarch-by-george-eliot/#comment-3947 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 16:18:42 +0000 https://amandeepmittal.wordpress.com/?p=2645#comment-3947 Thanks a lot Jeff.
