Small Town & Rural Editorial Review

Middlemarch is a classic novel that tells the story of the inhabitants of a fictitious town called Middlemarch. The book is unique in that it delves into the complicated relationships between the characters and explores the complexity of the human condition. Some readers found the book hard to read because of the outdated language and the length of the book. The audiobook narration, sold as a companion to the Kindle edition, does not sync with that edition, which has left some readers disappointed. The Penguin drop caps edition received criticism for its small font size and fully justified text, which makes reading difficult. The cover design is aesthetically pleasing but not durable, which was noted by some readers. The book’s subject matter is appreciated by those who enjoy classic English literature, but patience is required because of the number of characters.
