«Middlemarch», der berühmteste Roman von Mary Ann Evans, die unter dem Pseudonym George Eliot auftrat, um als schreibende Frau wahrgenommen zu werden, gilt bis heute zu Recht als Höhepunkt englischer Romankunst des 19. Jahrhunderts; seine Mischung aus Realismus, farbiger Personenzeichnung, psychologischer Einfühlung, naturwissenschaftlichem und philosophischem Interesse und historischem und sozialgeschichtlichem Bewusstsein ist unerreicht. Das Buch zeichnet ein lebhaftes Gemälde von den Skurrilitäten der englischen Provinz und ihrer Bewohner. Es ist mit scheinbar leichter Hand geschrieben in einem Stil, den eine verhaltene, doch stets präsente elegante Ironie prägt, wie sie ähnlich vollendet in der englischen Literatur vielleicht am ehesten Jane Austen zu Gebote stand. Für Virginia Woolf war es «das herrliche Buch» schlechthin.
