This definitive edition features beautiful vintage illustrations and is complete, unabridged, and formatted for Kindle to enhance your reading experience, with a linked table of contents for easy navigation. The three stories are vividly written, capturing the romance of reality and adhering to truth in both the darker and brighter aspects of life. The narratives unfold in the fictional town of Milby, each centered around different clergymen. "The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton" tells of a man who realizes his love for his wife too late. "Mr Gilful’s Love-Story" explores the unexpected drama of a clergyman’s early romance, while "Janet’s Repentance" delves into the struggles of an abused wife who seeks solace first in alcohol and then in the faith offered by evangelical preacher Mr. Tryan. Renowned for its exquisite truth and delicate balance of humor and pathos, this collection has been praised by notable figures, including Charles Dickens. As George Eliot's first masterpiece, this profound and engaging work will leave a lasting impression.
