– Silas Marner ble utstøtt av samfunnet han var en del av, fordi de anklaget ham for en forbrytelse han ikke hadde begått. Han flyttet til en annen landsby, bodde for seg selv og jobbet som vever, mens han gjemte alt gullet han tjente. Det gullet er det kjæreste han har, men en dag stjeler noen det gullet fra ham. Hva skal stakkars Silas da glede seg over her i livet? Hele livet hans blir snudd på hodet den dagen ei kvinne dør utenfor døra hans. Historien til Silas er spennende, fordi det er umulig å si hvordan det vil gå. Som leser endrer man også syn på hovedpersonen igjennom fortellinga. I tillegg får man innblikk i alle andres tanker, blant annet han som stjeler gullet, og slik blir boka veldig levende. Dessuten er det mange fascinerende karakterer i den. Ei god bok!

Silas Marner is a lowly weaver who is wrongfully accused of a crime, loses the woman he loves and the respect of his conservative neighbors. Shamed and broken, he attempts to build a new life without the reminder of everything he’s lost.
In the early nineteenth century, Silas Marner, is part of a small congregation where he earns a living as a weaver. When the group is suddenly robbed, members suspect Silas, prompting him to leave and embrace a life of isolation. His attempts to rebuild are thwarted when his own small fortune is stolen forcing him to start all over. Despite a desire for solitude, Silas stumbles across an abandoned child and decides to raise her as his own. Her presence changes his outlook, creating something he never thought he’d have – a family.
Eliot examines the dangers of oppressive institutions that cast away members without mercy. It addresses groupthink and a fear of individualism. The story is a cautionary tale that emphasizes the importance of perspective, empathy and hope.
With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Silas Marner is both modern and readable.
