Beschreibung

This new biography of George Eliot is not just the story of her life. It gives an account of what it means to become a novelist, and to think like a novelist. Philip Davis enables you not only to see through George Eliot's eyes, but also feel what it is like to be seen by her, in the imaginative involvement of her readers with her characters.
