Description:‘It is a story of old-fashioned village life, which has unfolded itself from the merest millet-seed of thought' -- George EliotGeorge Eliot's own favourite novel centres on Silas Marner, the linen weaver of Raveloe, a village on the brink of industrialization. Once he was a respected member of a narrow congregation, but the events that took place during one of his cataleptic fits led to the loss of everything that he valued. Now he lives a withdrawn half-life and is an object of suspicion to his new neighbours; he exists only for his work and his golden guineas. But when his precious money is stolen and, shortly after, seemingly and mysteriously replaced by the child Eppie, Silas is awakened to life by the redemptive power of love.George Eliot's affectionate but unsentimental portrait of rural life combines irony, humour and sharp social comment.
