About this listen

Meeting by chance at a gambling hall in Europe, the separate lives of Daniel Deronda and Gwendolen Harleth are immediately intertwined. Daniel, an Englishman of uncertain parentage, becomes Gwendolyn's redeemer as she finds herself drawn to his spiritual and altruistic nature after a loveless marriage. But Daniel's path was already set when he rescued a young Jewess from suicide.

Daniel Deronda, George Eliot's final novel, is a remarkable work, encompassing themes of religion, imperialism and gender within its broad and fascinating scope.

What an absolutely brilliant story. Eliots understanding of the human character is described in-depth with exquisite language that paints a picture so detailed you can almost smell the scenes. This book made me want to be a better person. As for performance, Juliet Stevenson narration of the story and depiction of Eliots character’s was absorbing and did absolute justice to them all.

This is my favorite novel of George Eliot's. She conveys so much understanding of how men & women lived at the time: their inner thoughts & motivations, their terrible choices, their limitations, their relationships with each other. I found it fascinating that the central theme revolved around Judaism, and read a number of articles regarding Judiasm & George Eliot, which were so interesting. I only wish I could convince my book group to tackle it, because I long to discuss it. And the narration by Juliet Stevenson was incredible - she is truly amazing in the way she brings the story to life & embodies the characters.

Full of so many thought-provoking ideas
