Belles Lettres [Silas Marner]

Title

Belles Lettres [Silas Marner]

Description

  • It is a great gain, because full of promise to her readers, that the last of George Eliot's works is undoubtedly the finest, the stream of thought runs clearer, the structure of the story is more compact, while the philosophical insight is deeper and more penetrating than in any of her former productions.
