She is best known for her novels, which often depict rural life in Victorian England. Eliot grew up in a strict evangelical family, eventually studying at the Coventry School of Design and later at a boarding school in Nuneaton. From 1841 to 1845, Eliot edited a magazine called The Westminster Review. In 1854, Eliot adopted the male pseudonym George Eliot and published her first novel, Scenes of Clerical Life. Her second novel, Adam Bede, was published in 1859 to great success. This was followed by The Mill on the Floss in 1860 and Silas Marner in 1861. Eliot's later works included Middlemarch (1871-72), Felix Holt the Radical (1866), and Daniel Deronda (1876). She also wrote short stories and poetry. Eliot was one of the most important writers of the 19th century and her works are still widely read today.
