love and trust and good will…
Book review:
Silas Marner
by Mary Ann Evans “George Eliot” (1819-1880)
English novelist, an icon in Victorian literature
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1899, repr. 1932
348 pages
Silas Marner is, ultimately, a story of love and trust and good will in a world that tolerates all of the manifestations of the human spirit, both good and ill.
The story invites you to pay attention to the good guys.
Evans (Eliot) offers some of her insights regarding “people whose lives have been made various by learning.” (p. 24)
