Literature [Review of The Mill on the Floss]

Title

Literature [Review of The Mill on the Floss]

Description

  • "This work, upon which the reading public have revealed during these last ten days, will scarcely, for a time, be judged upon its own merits. Assuming every man and woman who reads anything has read "Adam Bede," the question arises---Is this new effort of the able author or authoress, who uses the <I>nom de plume</I> of George Eliot, equal, or superior to, or is to less worthy than, the book which took the public by storm this time twelvemonth, and which is still read with unbated avidity?"
