Description
Silas Marner is the story of a man who, having had his spirit broken by a
cruel injustice, retreats from society and lives the solitary life of a village weaver whose
only pleasure is his ever-growing store of gold. This barren life of monotonous routine,
reclusive loneliness, and soulless hoarding is all he knows, until, one day, something
happens that changes it…for good.
Why Lisa loves this book
This book took me entirely by surprise. It had been recommended by a
trusted friend, so one winter break I listened to it on audiobook during my daily walks.
And at certain points, anyone who passed me on my walks would have seen tears
streaming down my face. It is a deceptively quaint and simple story set in the
countryside of 19 th century England that is densely packed with insights into the human
soul and – when all is said and done – devastatingly sweet.
