SILAS MARNER COLLINS — GEORGE ELIOT

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best loved essential classics Our consciousness rarely registers the beginning of a growth within us any more than without us there have been many circulations of the sap before we detect the smallest sign of the bud Set in the agricultural town of Raveloe in the English countryside Silas Marner is a tragic figure Exiled from a religious community because of a wrongful accusation of theft he works from day to day as a weaver saving his money and living a lonely life as a recluse It is only when his money is stolen and a small orphan girl Eppie appears in his life that Silas s fortunes begin to change and he truly begins to learn what it means to regain his faith in life
