What is the value of human relations, the connection between souls? In "Silas Marner," George Eliot explores this question in the story of a reclusive weaver in a small English town who learns to trade his love of gold for the love of those around him. Though he started life as a religious man, a heartbreaking betrayal drove Silas Marner to become a recluse whose only companions were his gold coins. But one day, his gold is stolen and a golden-haired girl appears in his cottage . . . and from that day forward, Marner -- and the town -- are irrevocably changed.
