Reviews for Middlemarch
Review - Middlemarch
Ponderous. The characters are likeable — I felt their joy, sorrow and frustration, but nothing actually happens. Entire chapters are devoted to town gossip. It was a psychological novel, and interesting as such, but it could have been much shorter. It reminded me of Barchester Towers except that the characters had personalities.
