Middlemarch by George Eliot

George Eliots mest ambiti sa roman Middlemarch r en komplex ber ttelse om idealism, lojalitet och uppslitande k rlek. I en engelsk sm stad under 1800-talets f rsta h lft f r vi f lja den unga idealisten Dorothea Brooke som r olyckligt gift, och den charmige men taktl se Dr Tertius Lydgate som ven han har problem p det ktenskapliga planet. Det r ett f rgstarkt och r rande drama som hyllades av Virginia Woolf som l r ha sagt att det var en av f engelska romaner skriven f r vuxna m nniskor. I original vers ttning av A. G. Engberg George Eliot, pseudonym f r Mary Anne Evans, var under sin livstid en av Storbritanniens fr msta f rfattare. Hon valde sin pseudonym efter sin f rebild Georges Sand.
George Eliot was born Mary Ann Evans in 1819. Her father was the land agent of Arbury Hall in Warwickshire, in the library of which Eliot embarked upon a brilliant self-education. She moved to London in 1850 and shone in its literary circles. It was, however, her novels of English rural life that brought her fame, starting with Adam Bede, published under her new pen-name in 1859. She went on to publish novels including The Mill on the Floss in 1860 and Middlemarch in 1871 as well as poetry and nonfiction of which Queen Victoria was one of her most devoted readers. She died in 1880.
