Silas Marner by George Eliot

This timeless novel tells the redemptive story of Silas Marner, a reclusive weaver whose life is transformed by the unexpected arrival of a child. After being betrayed by his community and retreating into isolation and hoarded gold, Silas finds purpose and connection again through love, sacrifice, and the healing power of human relationships. Set in a rural English village, the novel is both a moral tale and a poignant exploration of faith, community, and change.
