Brother Jacob is Eliot's literary homage to Thackeray, a satirical modern fable that draws telling parallels between eating and reading. Revealing Eliot's deep engagement with the question of whether there are 'necessary truths' independent of our perception of them and the boundaries of art and the self.

Very quick read, with the obvious style that George Eliot brings to all her works. A moral tale, without an ounce of preaching.
