About this audiobook

Middlemarch follows the novel's central characters Dorothea and Lydgate as they both respectively quest to find heroism in everyday deeds and gestures. Dorothea Brooke, a young woman of impeccable character, marries the embittered Mr. Casaubon, who almost immediately dies. Eliot takes the reader through a labyrinth of nineteenth-century morals and conventions as Dorothea searches for fulfillment and happiness. Their stories intermingle in many vital ways, resulting in an account that is both moving and thought-provoking.
The audio is read by highly-acclaimed British actress Hannah Gordon.
