The novel follows several interconnected characters, most notably the idealistic Dorothea Brooke and the ambitious young doctor Tertius Lydgate. Their hopes for meaningful work and fulfilling relationships are tested by unhappy marriages, financial pressures and the expectations of the community around them. Eliot combines social observation with exceptional psychological depth, exploring ambition, love, compromise, morality and the many ways individual lives influence one another.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216511549779,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421159735635,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/middlemarch-1999-folio-society-1129","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
