Title: Reviewing Twayne's Study, not the novel.
Review: This was very disappointing -- the "analysis" of Middlemarch. The author simply took all his lectures to college students over the years about his interpretation of Middlemarch.There are many, many better reviews of Middlemarch. Pass on this one.Again, I'm not sure if folks realize they are reviewing Middlemarch or the Twayne Study, or if Amazon.com is putting the reviews in the wrong place.As for the novel Middlemarch itself, yes, it's obviously a book that must be read by anyone serious about literature.Father of the novel: Cervantes, Don QuixoteFather of the English novel: Defoe"Father" of the first great modern novel: George Eliot
