Adam Bede is centered on a love "rectangle" involving four characters in the fictional close-knit rural community of Hayslope: the beautiful but self-absorbed Hetty Sorrel; Captain Arthur Donnithorne, the young squire who seduces her; Adam Bede, her suitor; and Dinah Morris, Hetty's cousin, a fervent, virtuous and beautiful Methodist lay preacher. An unexpected pregnancy throws all of their lives into turmoil. Immediately recognized as a masterpiece of literary significance, Adam Bede is one of George Eliot's most acclaimed works and is still the subject of study and interpretation and is considered to be one of the finest novels in the English language.
