About This Novel
Middlemarch is a fictional British rural town created by the author. Under the surface of tranquility and harmony, there are hidden turmoils in people's hearts. The novel mainly unfolds with two story lines: the young Dorothea pursues noble ideals, but falls into loneliness and disappointment in the wrong marriage. Finally, with clear understanding and courage, she breaks free and regains her life; Lydgate, a new doctor in the town, embraces the ambition to reform medicine, but is unable to move forward due to the fetters of money and public opinion. Several romances and marriages, several ambitions and disillusionments, and the interconnected life destinies of everyone in the small town, weave a grand picture of society and human nature in detail.
