description: 3 masterpieces from one of the Victorian era's most brilliant and celebrated feminist novelists--George Eliot, née Mary Ann Evans. Middlemarch , her most well-known work, paints a rich and varied portrait of English society. Eliot focuses especially on the idealistic Dorothea Brooke, a woman who, lacking a creative outlet of her own, dedicates herself to her husband's legacy. In Silas Marner , a tale filled with mystery and emotion, an embittered man retreats from the outside world, thinking only of work and money. Then his wealth is stolen from him-and a young foundling comes into his life and changes everything. Also the short story Amos Barton, which heralded Eliot's arrival as a writer when it was published in Blackwood's magazine in 1857.
