Description
Under the pseudonym George Eliot hid the writer Mary Ann Evans: in Victorian England, women authors were forced to take male names. She began her literary career as a translator, and then became an assistant editor of a magazine. Under the pseudonym George Eliot, she published eight novels, and the most important of them was “Middlemarch”—a large-scale, ironic canvas that touched on all the key issues of that time: art, religion, science, politics, and human relationships. With subtle irony, the writer describes the life of a provincial town in the first half of the 19th century, inhabited by living, recognizable, vivid characters.
