Under every guilty secret there is hidden a brood of guilty wishes, whose unwholesome infecting life is cherished by the darkness.

Mary Ann Evans She holds fast to the Immutable mechanics of Creation - Celestial clocks driving the Motions of the soul; Bell curves upending Philosophy, usurping Poetry – Until her Heart is broken. Then All Matter becomes heat: the Cosmos decays into fevered Entropy, the flow of Disorder moulding the Psyche - moulding the Future. Minds malleable, Minds like phosphorus, Minds ceaselessly beginning. Not clocks, but Clouds that churn and Swirl amid a welter of Inscrutable wills; Clouds calved and Borne along by Numberless currents. Now she pities those in Thrall to the Final Law of the World: Casaubon lost among Small closets and Winding stairs with his Key to All Mythologies, Cut down by an Adipose heart; Tertius Lydgate riveted to his idée fixe – The Primitive Tissue of Life - floored by Money mishaps, Condemned to treat gout. And yet Will Ladislaw rebels against an Inherited blot; Dorothea Brooke Ventures, Falters and Learns; Evolution rides upon Heaped-up error and Random flux; Chaos and Contingency flesh out Theodicy; Will and fate Entangle - Neither Fully formed, nor Fully free. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2026 Partly inspired by George Eliot and her magnum opus, Middlemarch (1872)

Authors I hope to finish before I die. Not sure how many, still making my list.
26. #GeorgeEliot (1819 - 1880). Classic fiction, Author of 7 novels. Completed 4 books.
#GeorgeEliot had the confidence to call Book 5 of Middlemarch "The Dead Hand" – audacious, given that every book would have been sold separately. But The Dead Hand it is, and readers brave enough to buy the volume were rewarded with many of the best scenes in the novel. #BookSky
Captivating performance by Elizabeth Dulau (Kleya in #Andor) in #BirdGrove at #HampsteadTheatre playing Mary Ann Evans ( #GeorgeEliot) about conflict with her traditional religious father (Owen Teale also excellent) in her early adult life as she discovers herself, the world, and atheism.
Cover of the Penguin Clothbound Classics edition of George Eliot’s novel, Middlemarch. The cover is a warm rosy pink, and is dotted with creamy cameo silhouettes of men and women.
Welcome to Middlemarch March! (But as this edition clocks in at a cool 838 pages long, best get cracking now.) #GeorgeEliot #Middlemarch #BookSky
"...for I certainly did consider Janet Raynor the most promising young woman of my acquaintance; --a little too much lifted up, perhaps, by her superior education, and too much given to satire, but able to express herself very well indeed (1/2)
