Title: A thoughtful comment on Silas Marner
Review: Silas Marner is a classic Eliot tale which combines comments on morality and religion in a fascinating narrative of life in England during the HeyDay of artisan industry.Truly a story which is as effective in commenting on the religious quandries of a man whose honesty and integrity were not believed by a church hierachy as it is on theeveryday affections of a father and his daughter. Silas is a modern-day tragic hero, with a twist; his tragedy is turned into a fairytale wonder, and the rich nobility ofthe Cass family (the local Squierarchy) have tragedy and sadness.This book is important reading for anyone interested in starting out with Eliot, and more so as a powerful and moving story from which everyone can learn! Silas is not abook which will simply be read once. You will want this hard cover edition to keep in a prominent place on your library shelf so that you'll be able to readit time and time again without damage!Have fun and enjoy.Phillip Miller
