Impressions of Theophrastus Such
more books like this
by
George Eliot
George Eliot's challenging last novel is also her least known. The story of a middle-aged London bachelor is actually a fable about what defines morality, as well as a commentary on how an author creates fictional characters and how a written text changes as it is read from generation to generation.
