Middlemarch | Book Two

Welcome back to Middlemarch, our year-ish long read. In this episode, Rhea and Shari discuss what it means to be old and young, to have desire and duty, and the making of a person and a marriage. They talk about the various relationships in Middlemarch and how they are continuing to shape into being. They spend considerable time discussing the “big-hearted” narrator, and all they appreciate about her commentary. And they go through several quotes from Book 2, and scratch their heads over each one’s meaning.

Be sure to find our chat section on the Middlemarch page for each week’s reading and join in the conversation!

Our next Middlemarch episode covering Book Three is scheduled to air April 3rd. Until then, read wide and read well!
