Middlemarch by George Eliot

Ambassador Leigh Turner considers one of his favourite female authors

[@shamimehsanulhaque5244]

Thank you for providing us such a brief yet wonderful introduction to Middlemarch. I am currently reading the book, and am totally amazed how much wisdom and experience have been shared between the two covers. And all of it quite deep and well thought out! I would also like to congratulate you on the elegant library that you have at the embassy. The bookshelves carry many noble volumes and the collection appears to be excellent. It was a treat to the viewers!

I just finished reading and found it absolutely great (assuming that I only scratched the surface, due to my lack of knowledge).

But I'm not sure that the (only) reason why she used a masculine name was because she was a woman; I heard that it was because she was with a man who was married to someone else.
