Escrito por Sir Walter Scott, O Coração de Midlothian é um dos mais notáveis romances do autor, ambientado na Escócia do século XVIII, em um período de intensas transformações sociais e morais. Publicado em 1818, o livro narra a trágica história das irmãs Jeanie e Effie Deans. Effie é acusada de infanticídio após o desaparecimento de seu filho recém-nascido, tornando-se alvo da justiça implacável e dos preconceitos de uma rígida sociedade. Jeanie, movida pela devoção e pela fé, enfrenta uma árdua jornada, tanto física quanto espiritual, em busca do perdão real para salvar a irmã. Paralelamente, Scott entrelaça histórias de injustiça, perseguições políticas e amores contrariados, compondo um retrato comovente da luta humana entre a culpa e a redenção.Com uma escrita envolvente, Scott oferece um retrato vívido da Escócia pós-jacobita, explorando temas de justiça, expiação e moralidade. O Coração de Midlothian não apenas emociona pelo drama humano e pela intensidade dos sentimentos, mas também reflete sobre o poder da consciência e da fé diante das instituições e das fraquezas humanas. Uma obra fundamental na literatura do século XIX, o romance combina realismo e sensibilidade moral, reafirmando o talento de Walter Scott em unir história, sentimento e reflexão universal.
