Best known for his brief marriage to George Eliot, John Cross (1840
1924) compiled this three-volume 'autobiography' of 1885 from his
late wife's journals and letters. Eliot was never married to her
long-term partner G. H. Lewes, and she courted further scandal when
she married Cross, twenty years her junior, in 1880. While these
volumes offer a valuable insight into Eliot's private reflections,
what is perhaps most telling is the material left out or rewritten
in Cross' efforts to lend his wife's unconventional life some
respectability, which he does at the expense of what one reviewer
described as Eliot's 'salt and spice'. George Eliot's Life will be
of particular interest to scholars of nineteenth-century biography
and literature. Volume 1 covers Eliot's life from 1819 to 1857,
beginning with a brief sketch of her childhood and continuing with
her move to Coventry, then to London, and travels to Geneva.
