1. Romola: Penned by George Eliot, „Romola” is an intense, gripping historical novel set in 15th-century Italy. In the narrative, Tito, a handsome but scheming Greek opportunist, marries Romola, the daughter of a scholar. He deceives Romola, is unscrupulous in his political dealings, and is finally killed by his adoptive father. Romola finds strength in helping to care for Tito’s other wife and the children of that union. A true classic!
2. Brother Jacob: First published in 1860, „Brother Jacob” is a short story about deception, imperial venture, and self-interest by George Eliot in which she explores the relationship between the selfish, self-centered, and ambitious David Faux and his simple-hearted and naif brother, Jacob. It is Eliot’s literary homage to Thackeray, a satirical modern fable that draws telling parallels between eating and reading.
3. Michael: There has never been a city that would be so inimitable. Most trains, too, completely ignore its existence and pass through it on the way to more useful stops. The story was supposed to strengthen many people during the First World War. The book is full of sentimentalism, but it describes well the different scenes of everyday life.
4. Diary of a Provincial Lady: Behind this rather prim title lies the hilarious fictional diary of a disaster-prone lady of the 1930s, and her attempts to keep her somewhat ramshackle household from falling into chaos. Written with humour, this charming novel is full of the peculiarities of daily life. As witty and delightful today as when it was first published in 1930, „Diary of a Provincial Lady” is a brilliantly observed comic novel and an acknowledged classic.
5. The Provincial Lady in America: No one could have been more surprised than our Provincial Lady to receive an invitation from her American agent to travel transatlantic and embark upon a programme of lectures and signings. What follows after she sets foot on American soil is a series of whirlwind tours about the continent, and also including a trip to Canada. This is book 3 in the Provincial Lady series by English author E. M. Delafield.
6. The Provincial Lady in Wartime: This is the fourth and last of autobiographical novel series by English author E. M. Delafield (1890-1943). It takes the form of a journal of the life of an upper-middle class Englishwoman in the 1930s. The story of a volunteer in a woman’s underground canteen service in England during the World War 2 who must cope with gas masks, evacuated relatives etc.
7. The Lifted Veil: During a period of illness, Latimer first discovers he is able to read other peoples’ minds and see visions of the future. Rather than being a gift, this strange phenomenon increasingly becomes a curse. But the one thing that keeps him going is his love for Bertha. But everything changes when Latimer finally does gain sporadic insight into Bertha’s mind... and finds her thoughts are much more sinister than he had anticipated... In this dark novella George Eliot explores clairvoyance, fate and the possibility of life after death.
8. The Provincial Lady in Russia: Written in the style of a diary, it tells the story of woman living in 1930s Russia who finds herself toiling on a collective farm, battling with public transport, and generally struggling with life in Soviet Russia. Although the style and humor are slightly different than the others in the series, it manages to be on itself a thoroughly interesting book about one woman’s experiences in Communist Russia.
9. Felix Holt, the Radical: Set during the time of the Reform Act of 1832, the story centers on an election contested by Harold Transome, a local landowner, in the „Radical cause”, contrary to his family’s Tory traditions. Contrasting with the opportunism of Transome is the sincere, but opinionated, Radical Felix Holt. Against this background, the author George Eliot tells a love story and weaves a plot which has many elements of the sensation novel, such as illegitimacy, blackmail, and the discovery of an heiress, where the suspense is maintained until the end.
