The Middlemarch reading group will gather on Tuesday, September 24 at 7:00 pm to discuss the book and our collective impressions. Please let Emma Johnson know by email (emmaderryj@gmail.com)  if you are able to participate. Join the fun!

George Eliot's 1871 novel, Middlemarch, A Study of Provincial Life, is a classic work of English literature for a reason, but it can be a lot to take on alone. The book, known for its hugeness, centers on a cast of characters in the fictional Midlands town, and surrounding estates, of Middlemarch. It combines the fabulous fun of a Victorian novel, with marriage plots galore, but also deep philosophical reflection and instruction on what it means to live a moral life. Some of you may already know and love Middlemarch, and perhaps it's time for a re-read. For others, it may be entirely new. We welcome all who are interested to give Middlemarch a go as your summer reading this season!
