Powerful and moving, "The Mill on the Floss" is considered to be George Eliot's most autobiographical novel. Set in early 19th century England, this is the tale of gifted, free-spirited Maggie Tulliver and her selfish, spoiled brother, Tom, who were born and raised at Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss. Eliot's portrayal of sibling relationships is terribly poignant and plays a major part in the novel, as does the longstanding rivalry between two local families - the Tullivers and the Wakems. From earliest childhood Maggie worships her brother Tom, longing to win his approval, and that of her...

Join us for a classic masterpiece, revolving around love, jealousy, obligation, the status of women, the nature of marriage, idealism, self-interest, religion, hypocrisy, political reform, education, and a deep psychological observation of human nature. Set in the fictitious town of Middlemarch, it has a huge cast of characters, including Dorothea Brooke, who is forced to deal with a disastrous marriage and the mean-spirited society around her. This is the seventh novel by George Eliot (Mary Anne Evans), and her most famous work.

The novel details the lives of Tom and Maggie Tulliver, a brother and sister growing up on the river Floss near the village of St. Oggs, evidently in the 1820s, after the Napoleonic Wars but prior to the first Reform Bill (1832). The novel spans a period of 10-15 years, from Tom and Maggie's childhood up until their deaths in a flood on the Floss. The book is fictional autobiography in part, reflecting the disgrace that George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) herself had while in a lengthy relationship with a married man, George Henry Lewes.
