Eliot, George; Hardy, Barbara (Edited by)
Daniel Deronda
Harmondsworth Penguin Books; Penguin Classics 1986 0140430202 / 9780140430202 8th printing Mass Market Paperback Good
903 pp.; 18 cm. First published, 1876. Good+. Tight, clean copy. Light edgewear to wraps. "As Daniel Deronda opens, Gwendolen Harleth is poised at the roulette-table, prepared to throw away her family fortune. She is observed by Daniel Deronda, a young man groomed in the finest tradition of the English upper-classes. And while Gwendolen loses everything and becomes trapped in an oppressive marriage, Deronda’s fortunes take a different turn. After a dramatic encounter with the young Jewish woman Mirah, he becomes involved in a search for her lost family and finds himself drawn into ever-deeper sympathies with Jewish aspirations and identity. ‘I meant everything in the book to be related to everything else’, wrote George Eliot of her last and most ambitious novel, and in weaving her plot strands together she created a bold and richly textured picture of British society and the Jewish experience within it. / George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans Cross) was born on November 22, 1819 at Arbury Farm, Warwickshire, England. She received an ordinary education and, upon leaving school at the age of sixteen, embarked on a program of independent study to further her intellectual growth. In 1841 she moved with her father to Coventry, where the influences of 'skeptics and rationalists' swayed her from an intense religious devoutness to an eventual break with the church. The death of her father in 1849 left her with a small legacy and the freedom to pursue her literary inclinations. In 1851 she became the assistant editor of the Westminster Review, a position she held for three years. In 1854 came the fated meeting with George Henry Lewes, the gifted editor of The Leader, who was to become her adviser and companion for the next twenty-four years. Her first book, Scenes of a Clerical Life (1858), was followed by Adam Bede (1859), The Mill on the Floss (1860), Silas Marner (1861), and Middlemarch (1872). The death of Lewes, in 1878, left her stricken and lonely. On May 6, 1880, she married John Cross, a friend of long standing, and after a brief illness she died on December 22 of that year, in London." - Publisher.

Middlemarch
Harmondsworth Penguin Books; Penguin Classics 1994 0141439548 / 9780141439549 10th printing Trade Paperback Very Good
xxiv, 852 pp., illus.; 20 cm. First published, 1871-72. Tight, clean copy. Light edgewear to wraps, age toning. Life in a provincial town. "It was George Eliot's ambition to create a world and portray a whole community - tradespeople, middle classes, country gentry - in the rising fictional provincial town of Middlemarch, circa 1830. Vast and crowded, rich in narrative irony and suspense, Middlemarch is richer still in character and in its sense of how individual destinies are shaped by and shape the community. / George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans Cross) was born on November 22, 1819 at Arbury Farm, Warwickshire, England.

Romola
Harmondsworth Penguin Books; Penguin Classics 1980 014043139X / 9780140431391 Reprint, 1988 Mass Market Paperback Good
736 pp., map, biblio.; 18 cm. First published, 1863. Good+. Tight, clean copy. Browning. "'There is no book of mine about which I more thoroughly feel that I swear by every sentence as having been written with my best blood,' wrote George Eliot of Romola, the novel which argues her most profound and utopian vision of the position of women. Romola's patient subservience to her scholar-father Bardo, her unhappy marriage to supple and treacherous Tito, and her passionate intellectual and spiritual awakening take place in Renaissance Florence which, like Victorian Britain, was caught up in a period of ferment and transition. Romola appeared in 1862-3 to high praise by Victorians from Tennyson and Trollope to Henry James, and discerning modern readers will recognize it as George Eliot's first mature masterpiece. / George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans Cross) was born on November 22, 1819 at Arbury Farm, Warwickshire, England.

Eliot, George; Allen, Walter (Afterword by)
Silas Marner
New York Signet; New American Library 1981 0451519450 / 9780451519450 Mass Market Paperback Good
24th printing. 186 pp.; 18 cm. With an Updated Bibliography. Good+. Tight, clean copy. Browning. "In this heartwarming classic by George Eliot, a gentle linen weaver named Silas Marner is wrongly accused of heinous theft actually committed by his best friend. Exiling himself to the rustic village of Raveloe, he becomes a lonely recluse. Ultimately, Marner finds redemption and spiritual rebirth through his unselfish love for an abandoned child who mysteriously appears one day in his isolated cottage. Somber, yet hopeful, Eliot's realistic depiction of an irretrievable past, tempered with the magical elements of myth and fairy tale, remains timeless in its understanding of human nature and is beloved by every generation. / George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans Cross) was born on November 22, 1819 at Arbury Farm, Warwickshire, England.
