Movie Review: The Butler

This is it! We’re finally here, about the reveal the winner of the first annual Persephone Magazine Middlemarch Madness. We’ve gone from 90+ wonderful women from all of our favorite books down to one. At first glance, the votes between the final two weren’t even close, but things aren’t always what they seem.
