– På tross av å være skrevet for 150 år siden så er denne boken fortsatt en av de beste som noensinne er skrevet, og en bok som man med glede kan lese flere ganger. For den har først og fremst en interessant historie å fortelle, krydret med enkeltskjebner som er like aktuelle i dag som den gang den ble skrevet. Språket er noen gammelmodig, men dette gir også fortellingen karakter og en følelse av noe historisk over seg. Det er derfor best å lese den på originalspråket selv om dialogen er skrevet på dialekt noe som gjør de tyngre å forstå. Adam Bede er en av de mest komplette karakterer som noensinne er beskrevet i bokform, og kombinert med karakteren Dinah blir dette en kjærlighetshistorie som er så mye, mye mer enn bare det vi forbinder med denne genren.
