"Eugene Aram" by Edward Bulwer Lytton is a novel written in the early 19th century that delves into the life of a character fraught with contradictions. The story revolves around Eugene Aram, a complex scholar whose brilliance is overshadowed by the shadow of a crime—the murder for gain—which creates a moral enigma for the reader. Through this narrative, the author intends to explore themes of intellect, morality, and the impact of circumstance on human behavior. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to the tranquil village of Grassdale, characterized by its picturesque landscape and the simple lives of its inhabitants. The narrative begins with a rich description of the village and its notable residents, particularly focusing on Rowland Lester, his daughters Madeline and Ellinor, and their cousin Walter. These characters are portrayed against the backdrop of a peaceful community disrupted by the arrival of a mysterious stranger, who is later suggested to have connections to Eugene Aram. The opening sets the tone for a story mingled with intrigue and foreshadows the intertwining fates of its characters as they navigate their lives around the specter of crime and intellectual pursuit.

Reading ease score: 65.9 (8th & 9th grade). Neither easy nor difficult to read.
