An epic tale of life in fifteenth century Florence, Romola is a fascinating novel that mixes a fictional plot with actual historical events. As gripping today as it was when first published in the mid-nineteenth century, Eliot’s masterpiece remains a stunning classic of English literature. Her other hugely popular novels include Middlemarch, Adam Bede, The Mill on the Floss, Silas Marner, and Danial Deronda.
