Description
The tale of a solitary miser gradually redeemed by the joy of fatherhood, Silas Marner is the most immediately accessible of Eliot's novels Unjustly exiled, cut off from his past, Silas the weaver is reduced to a spider-like existence, endlessly weaving his web and hoarding his gold. That is until the unlikely appearance of a child on his hearth. The orphan child Eppie restores him to life with love and tenderness. Silas Marner is a tender and moving tale of sin and repentance set in a vanished rural world and holds the reader's attention until the last page as Eppie's bonds of affection for Silas are put to the test.

Professional reviews
"‘I think Silas Marner holds a higher place than any of the author's works. It is more nearly a masterpiece; it has more of that simple, rounded, consummate aspect… which marks a classical work.’ HENRY JAMES"
