My Life in Middlemarch

Perfect timing. This book arrived in the mail from the publisher only days after I finished Middlemarch. It's a book of reflections upon Middlemarch. Mead takes a deep look at Middlemarch, examining letters of author George Eliot, visiting spots from Eliot's life, and thinking about the relationship between the lives of Middlemarch characters and the life of Eliot and Mead's own life.

This book added so much to my experience of reading Middlemarch. Thoughtful and erudite.
