In the novel Felix Holt, the Radical, George Eliot (the pseudonym of Mary Anne Evans) turns her attention to political affairs. However, although the Reform movement of the early 1800s is an important plot point in the novel, the tale focuses more on the intersection between politics and society, and the myriad ways in which changes in the law can and do affect family and intimate relationships.
