George Eliot was the pen name of Mary Ann Evans, a prominent
Victorian novelist. The author of "Silas Marner" and "Middlemarch"
among others, her works have become classics of English literature.
She is noted for her realism and acute psychological insight.
"The Mill on the Floss" deals with the relationship Tom and
Maggie Tulliver, a brother and sister growing up on the Floss river
near St. Ogg. The book covers a fifteen-year period between the end
of the Napoleonic Wars and the first Reform Bill, from their
childhood till their deaths.
Maggie is the focus, an intelligent young woman who yearns for
the love her father provided before his death, and desires
experience of the wider world she cannot get in her remote
location. Her desires clash with those of her more pragmatic
brother as they experience various trials including the death of
their father, bankruptcy, and the loss of the mill.
