Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Lovers
So vast looms George Eliot's fame as a novelist that it will surprise most readers of this exquisite Poem of Life and Love to find her its author The surprise is natural and justified. As if a strong, delightful water that we only knew as a river, writes Matthew Browne in the Contemporary Review, appeared in the character of a fountain; as if one whom we had wondered at as a good walker or inexhaustible pedestrian began to dance; as if Mr. Bright, in the middle of a public meeting, were to oblige the company with a song, no, no, not like that exactly, but like something quite new, is the appearance of George Eliot in the charac ter of a poet.
