Middlemarch

‘If youth is the season of hope, it is often so only in the sense that our elders are hopeful about us; for no age is so apt as youth to think its emotions, partings, and resolve are the last of their kind. Each crisis seems final, simply because it is new.’05-14

维多利亚时期最喜欢的一本小说。感谢相遇。01-27

前面拖拖拉拉读了半年，小说结尾将所有人串联起来，最后一口气读完后后十分之一。04-20

一年半拖拖拉拉读，最后一鼓作气读完。人物太多，事无巨细，各种八卦。开始很难适应她的文风，觉得平淡无力，会看睡，看到中后部分，纠纷多了，提神了。忠诚二字考验人性。11-02

”What do I think of Middlemarch? What do I think of glory."-Emily Dickinson04-27

Oh how I wish I read this earlier!02-04

Less “enjoyable” than I expected but GREAT work. The case of Casaubon sheds light on my life. I would say George Eliot really have changed my life.01-10

应该被列为任何有志于写小说的人的教科书。01-06

A real “novel for adults”. (Criticized by Virginia Woolf)01-24

女作家 好内容 好结构10-14

三十多个小时的有声书，故事本身很琐碎，但用来打发散步和做家务的时间刚好。胜在一些极有穿透力的观察。Dorothea嫁给Casaubon是因为他象征着通往知识的门，后来理想破灭了。引以为戒。01-24

塑造最精彩的人物是老学究和医生12-30

第一本读完的英文大部头11-18
