This Penguin Classic is performed by Jan Francis, star of Just Good Friends. This definitive recording includes an Introduction by David Carroll.

Wrongly accused of theft and exiled from a religious community many years before, the embittered weaver Silas Marner lives alone in Raveloe, living only for work and his precious hoard of money. But when his money is stolen and an orphaned child finds her way into his house, Silas is given the chance to transform his life. His fate, and that of the little girl he adopts, is entwined with Godfrey Cass, son of the village Squire, who, like Silas, is trapped by his past. Silas Marner, George Eliot's favourite of her novels, combines humour, rich symbolism and pointed social criticism to create an unsentimental but affectionate portrait of rural life.

(c) George Eliot 1861 (P) Penguin Audio 2019

George Eliot showed an abundance of skill and sensitivity in telling this wonderful story. You feel you know and love all the main characters, and though there's lots of description and reflection, rather than slowing down the action of the heart warming story, this deepens your experience of it. It is beautifully written, and also beautifully read by Juliet Stevenson, with just the right amount of characterisation when each character speaks, and well judged pacing of the narrative sections. I thoroughly recommend it!

A beautiful story, engagingly read!

This is such a wonderful story. I do also love Middlemarch, but would suggest starting with Silas Marner, to anyone who feels intimidated by the length of Eliot's more epic novels. Excellent narration, and fascinating Introduction. Highly recommended.

Rarely have I had to work so hard with a novel to complete the reading(hearing.
The main character, Silas Marner, is a lonely, dull person who can catch whether sympathise or interest in his person.
It was difficult for me to cope with the wordy description of life in the early 19th century. But I forced myself to go on. At last, after two-thirds of the novel, I gave it up.
There was too much unnecessary detail and not enough of a gripping storyline.
The female speaker did a good job; otherwise, I had broken up earlier.

Extremely boring and wordy, wordy with little cont
