The story opens as Silas Marner, falsely accused of theft, loses everything, including his faith in God. Embittered and alienated from his fellw man, he moves to the village of Raveloe, where he becomes a waver. Taking refuge in his work, Silas slowly begins to accumulate god – his only joy in life – until one day that too is stolen from him.
The volume also includes two shorter works by Eliot: “The Lifted Veil”, a Gothic fantasy about a morbid young clairvoyant. And “Brother Jacob”, a deliciously satirical fable about a confectioner’s apprentice.
