Felix Holt, The Radical by George Eliot (1819 - 1880)

“Harold Transome is a landowner who goes against his family’s political tradition (much to his mother’s distress), while Felix Holt is a sincere radical. The setting of the book, the 1832 parliament election, is used to discuss the social problems of that time. A secondary plot involves Esther Lyon, the stepdaughter of a minister who is the real heiress to the Transome estate, with whom both Harold Transome and Felix Holt fall in love. Esther loves poor Felix Holt, but would she choose a comfortable life with Harold Transome?” (Summary by Stav Nisser)
