    [synopsis] => In this essay, originally published anonymously in The Westminster Review (1856), George Eliot examines the state of women's fiction in her time. She lamentingly argues that absurd and banal novels, written by well-to-do women of her time, do great disservice for the overall appreciation of women's intellectual capacities. Eliot divides 'silly novels by lady novelists' into several distinct categories: the mind-and-millinery species, the oracular type and the white-neck-cloth variety. She writes with characteristic sharp wit and insightful intellect in this scathing (but not unfeeling) feminist critique of 'Silly Novels by Lady Novelists'.

This edition includes illustrations from the books critiqued by Eliot, along with annotations.
