Middlemarch is a novel written by George Eliot, first published in 1871-72. The novel is set in the fictional town of Middlemarch in the Midlands of England during the 1830s and 1840s. The story centers around several characters, including Dorothea Brooke, a young woman who wants to make a difference in the world, and Tertius Lydgate, a young doctor who wants to reform the medical profession. As they navigate their personal and professional lives, they encounter various obstacles and challenges, including love, marriage, politics, and social class. The novel explores themes such as ambition, idealism, morality, and the role of women in society. With its complex characters, intricate plot, and insightful social commentary, Middlemarch is considered one of the greatest works of English literature.Miss Brooke had that kind of beauty which seems to be thrown into relief by poor dress. Her hand and wrist were so finely formed that she could wear sleeves not less bare of style than those in which the Blessed Virgin appeared to Italian painters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
