In many ways I think Romola represents the finest flowering of George Eliot's genius. Admittedly readers have to surmount some early obstacles in the shape of Eliot's renowned erudition transmitted through the medium of the heroine's scholarly father. Other barriers to some readers these days will be the long periods of writing, characteristic of Victorian prose, but perhaps more difficult to surmount by readers brought up in the epoch of the bullet point, punchy brevity and filmic cuts. But the reward more than matches the effort. In essence the tale follows the journey of Romola and Tito from the Tuscan (almost paradisal) "primavera" of youthful innocence along the arc of their inner and outer development as they come to terms with the realities of mundane existence. But their journeys, first imperceptibly, then markedly, take very different routes: the one to the left hand of the anti-hero's descent into corruption, ambition and destruction; the other to the right hand of suffering, loss, the long night of spiritual despair leading to new strength, recognition and conquest of reality and a new pattern of existence. Savonarola's Florence makes a fitting backdrop for their individual struggles. Savonarola himself is shown as representing within his own struggle both the high and low roads, the lure to mundane power (even if as a means to spiritual ends) and the striving to spiritual grace. The historical background is well sketched. George Eliot's research, as demonstrated in the introduction and copious notes, was formidable and well applied to sketching the scenic and atmospheric canvas against which her characters move. Real historical characters such as Machiavelli, Bernardo del Nero, Valori and Savonarola himself are convincingly drawn. George Eliot cannot entirely prevent her didactic edge occasionally dominating her narrative, or a Victorian tendency to maudlin sentimentality in picturing the "ideal" of the pure heroine or the cliched axiom of the ideal goal of the happy family. But these are much more well-controlled than in, say, Dickens or Austen. In all, it made a greater impression on me than some of her more famous works, which seem parochial, both in terms of setting and ideas, by comparison. A great work by a great spirit.

SPOILER ALERT!Having been a George Eliot fan for many years ('Middlemarch' is my favourite novel of all time) I have been far too long getting round to reading 'Adam Bede'. I'm not sure whether this is a neglected classic or simply neglected by me, though I have noticed there seem to be few TV or film adaptations, perhaps an indication of the book's relative obscurity.It certainly deserves to be better known and more often read. Though not without faults (it was, after all, Ms Eliot's first novel) it is for the most part rich in its descriptions, absorbing in its plot, and generally strong in its characterisation. It is a slight pity that the 'saints' (Adam Bede and Dinah Morris) are not so imaginatively drawn as the 'sinners' (Arthur Donnithorne and especially Hetty Sorrel) and therefore interest us less, but the same could be said of many undisputed classics - Tess of the D'Urbevilles, for example, featuring the insipid Angel Clare.In fact there are a number of strong parallels between this novel and 'Tess' which make me wonder if Hardy used George Eliot's work as a model for his own. Hetty, like Tess, is a pretty girl of the country labouring classes, seduced and left pregnant by a member of the local gentry. Both babies die in infancy. Both women are arrested, tried and committed to hang, though in Hetty's case there is a rather contrived 'deus ex machina' reprieve brought by her repentant seducer. Both novels are set in rural England and both present a large supporting cast of colourful countryfolk who provide vernacular comic relief. Both are moralistic works of their time, though Hardy's characteristic pessimism about the human lot runs counter to the early George Eliot's optimistic, overtly Christian outlook.I am not claiming for 'Adam Bede' superior provenance over 'Tess of the D'Urbevilles', much less as high a place in the unofficial league table of English literature, but I would hope readers will be stimulated by this review among others favourable to the novel and not wait as long as I did to read it.

Despite glimpses of her genius this is probably the least successful of her novels - an embarrassing `historical' pastiche which - as F.R.Leavis said "Few will want to read a second time, and few can ever have got through it once without some groans".. Better buy a solid paperback copy with footnotes.
