She was one of the leading writers of the Victorian era. Her novels, largely set in provincial England, are well known for their realism and psychological perspicacity. She used a male pen name to ensure that her works were taken seriously. Eliot wanted to ensure that she was not seen as merely a writer of romances. Eliot's most famous work, Middlemarch, is a turning point in the history of the novel. |
