Eliot transplants her moral vision to Renaissance Florence, where political upheaval mirrors personal awakening. Romola must choose between loyalty to her duplicitous husband and commitment to larger principles. The historical setting feels lived-in rather than researched. This substantial novel rewards readers who appreciate intellectual heroines, who understand that personal integrity often requires abandoning the safety of conventional relationships.
