Representaion Supposing Books Adam Bede

Reader, I ask you, what can be better than a long book full of good sentences?

That was a rhetorical question, of course - I think there is nothing better than good sentences following one on another, and this book is full of them.
But Adam Bede also offers that extra ingredient readers generally can't resist: intrigue.

The intrigue is centered on the curious nature of the rules of attraction, which is no surprise of course as variations on the classic love triangle often feature in George Eliot's books. However in Adam Bede, the rules of attraction seem to stretch well beyond the usual three-sided figure. Instead we have a far more complicated situation:

SB loves DM who loves AB who loves HS who loves AD.

*……*……*……*……*

Five isolated points. There seems to be no way to bring them together, no way to build them into a useful shape, such as a house, for example. And yet Adam Bede, who is at the centre of the problematic, is a carpenter who is very good at calculating distances and angles and the correct weight of roof timbers. Come on, Adam, we say encouragingly, build that house! Make it happen.

Meanwhile, our mental business is carried on much in the same way as the business of the State: a great deal of hard work is done by agents who are not acknowledged. In a piece of machinery, too, I believe there is often a small unnoticeable wheel which has a great deal to do with the motion of the large obvious ones...the human soul is a very complex thing.

A little mental business, a little adjustment of wheels and cogs, and not forgetting some small heart-related 'agents' their owners hardly know exist, has to be carried out by several of the characters before Adam's house can be built. It is a very interesting process to watch.


The human heart is a very complex thing indeed.

#2015 Reading Challenge--Week 15: A popular author's first book. This is truly one of the best books I've ever read. Granted it is not an easy read, being filled with local dialect and dense, complicated sentence structure, but it is SO worth the reader's time and effort. Eliot develops the scene and characters slowly in the first 300 pages, transporting the reader to the English countryside of 1799 where some of the most fully-fleshed characters of English literature come to life. It is in the

Adam Bede is a polished and delicately painted debut novel . George Eliot published Silas Marner and the Mill on the Floss in each of the next two years. How amazing! Adam Bede predates Hardy's Tess of D' Ubervilles by over 30 years and honestly, I found Eliot's novel more suspenseful and brutal. The setting, 1798, bucolic England peopled with dozens of individuals from every walk of life. At first this town is like the Garden of Eden with meaningful employment for everyone. Adam, of course, is

I wrote a pretty long review comparing Eliot's Bede to Summer by Wharton, so if you want to see that, check out my Summer review. The books have a lot of similarities but also they are very different. Summer is much shorter, and focused on the female protagonist. Bede is long and Adam Bede is the central character, though we do get some chapters with the narration focused on Hetty Sorrel.One thing I loved in Bede is the relationships between parents and guardians and their children...Bede has an

Reading this reminded me of the long running radio soap, The Archers. That started around 70 years ago I think, whereas this novel is set at the end of the 18th century/ beginning of the 19th.The title character is a handsome hunk of a man who ticks all the right boxes for George Eliot and the rest of us womankind and mankind. As well as being a looker hes intelligent, honourable and interesting. But, like the best of us, he demonstrates the old adage that love is blind.This is a book to lose

Absolutely loved this novel. I am certain I will read this again and again throughout my lifetime.The first three hundred pages (pre-Hetty's travails) were perfect; I was disappointed when the wonderfully center-less scope narrowed its focus on the events of Hetty's escape.This novel really raised the bar for me w/r/t character development: even the most minor (and superficially unlikeable) of characters has an interior world as expansive and dynamic as any galaxy, full of prejudices, doubts,

I think I have read somewhere Dinah Morris is also known as That Irksome Character...

I loved this book! It was just a mellow fun story to read nothing riviting me to my seat and then all of a sudden I was dying! I have never in my life been completely torn; I couldn't stop reading because I had to know what would happen at the same time I had to stop reading because I was afraid to see what would happen. Never in my life have I seriously considered flipping to the back of the book to see how it ends, and I am not a spoiler of plots. Not to be cliche but I laughed and cried
