GA Review[edit]

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch

Although this article is better than most novel articles, it has a ways to go before GA. Several sections are uncited and disorganized. The Major themes section could use a lot more sources and expansion, for example. I would put the Plot summary before anything else in the article except possibly the historical background. No sense in talking about themes in a plot you haven't described yet. The entire characters section seems to violate WP:OR since it cites almost nothing but the primary source. The adaptations section needs to be prosified and the [citation needed] tags in other sections fixed.

Other parts of the article, such as the first part of the Critical section and many parts of the Historical background sections, are very good, though.
