I just finished the decently long chapter in which Eliot explains Lydgate's backstory regarding his becoming a doctor and a folly which lead to his now-scientific analysis of women. What I gleaned from that chapter is that Eliot is a true master of psychology. You know these characters. I have never seen an author go so in-depth into peoples' psyches before.

The in-depth portraits that Eliot paints of the characters are incredible. I have just gotten past the part about the Vichy's and Mr Featherstone and that was a marvelous chapter. I will begin Book 2 on my next read.

Every time I make time to read this book it delights me - which makes it a little confusing that I can go so long stretches without picking it up 🤷♀️
