Middlemarch

“Give it a shot if you haven’t read it already. Long, pleasant, surprisingly easy read, and it makes you think!”

“The main character of Middlemarch is Middlemarch”

“Published in 1871, Mary Ann Evans is a genius of realist fiction. The dialogue is as hilarious & modern as Succession, the portrait of small-town provincialism is as multifaceted and well-drawn as the Wire. Our book club read it summer ‘23, and we still call ourselves the Middlemarchers.”
