Inspirada en gran parte en los recuerdos de la infancia de la autora, que transcurrió en las propiedades paternas de Warwickshire junto a su hermano Isaac, El molino del Floss gira en torno al desigual destino de Tom y Maggie Tulliver, los hijos del molinero. A pesar de la inteligencia natural de Maggie, es Tom, por ser varón, quien recibe la educación y en quien el padre de ambos -y por supuesto la sociedad provinciana de mediados del XIX-, confía para hacer frente al futuro del molino. Cuando los niños se acercan a la juventud, la desgracia económica cae sobre los Tulliver, y los hermanos se ven obligados a enfrentarse a las dificultades. Maggie, álter ego de Eliot, es uno de los personajes más fascinantes de toda su producción, una mujer sensible y apasionada encerrada en un ambiente vulgar, monótono y, con frecuencia, ruin. Su magistral caracterización se desarrolla sobre el trasfondo social e histórico de la época: Eliot refleja, con gran precisión, el lento pero inexorable cambio que la sociedad rural de miras estrechas sufre en favor de una de corte capitalista. A pesar del patetismo progresivo de la novela, un fino humor, altamente crítico, está siempre presente. Considerada, después de Middlemarch (1871-1872), la mejor obra salida de la pluma de Eliot, El molino del Floss refleja al igual que ésta, a través de los conflictos morales de sus personajes, la preocupación metafísica de la autora.

The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot Dorlcote Mill is located on the banks of the River Floss, near the village of St. Ogg. Owned by the ambitious Mr. Tulliver, the mill provides a good life for the Tulliver family, but Mr. Tulliver dreams of the day his son Tom will achieve a higher position in life. Mrs. Tulliver's sisters, who had married well, criticize Mr. Tulliver's unseemly ambition, and openly predict the day his sky castles will ruin him and his family. Aunt Glegg is the richest of the sisters and has a note on her property. After arguing with her about her plans for Tom's education, Mr. Tulliver decides to borrow the money and pay her back. Tom has inherited the placid arrogance of his mother's relatives; for him, life is not difficult. He is determined to be fair in all his dealings and to punish those who deserve it. His sister Maggie grows up with an imagination that surpasses his understanding. Her aunts predict that she will come to a bad end because she is tomboyish, dark-skinned, dreamy, and indifferent to their orders. Frightened by her lack of success in her attempt to please her brother Tom, her cousin Lucy, her mother, and her aunts, Maggie runs away, determined to live with the gypsies, but is happy enough to return. Her father scolds her mother and Tom for abusing her. Her mother is sure Maggie will come to a bad end from the way Mr. Tulliver humiliates her. Tom's problems begin when his father sends him to study at Mr. Stelling's school. With little interest in spelling, grammar, or Latin, Tom wishes he were back at the mill, where he can dream of one day riding a horse like his father's and giving orders to the people around him. Mr. Stelling is convinced that Tom is not only stubborn but stupid. Returning home for the Christmas holidays, Tom learns that Philip Wakem, the son of a lawyer who is an enemy of his father, will also enter Mr. Stelling's school. Philip is disabled; Tom, therefore, cannot beat him up. Philip knows how to draw and knows Latin and Greek. After overcoming their initial reserve, the two boys become useful to each other. Philip admires Tom's arrogance and self-control, and Tom needs Philip to help him with his studies, but his parents' quarrel keeps a gulf between them. When Maggie visits Tom, she meets Philip and the two become close friends. After Maggie is sent to school with her cousin Lucy, Mr. Tulliver becomes involved in a lawsuit. Because Wakem defends the opposition, Tulliver says his children should have as little to do with Philip as possible. Mr. Tulliver loses his suit and may also lose all of his property. To pay Aunt Glegg, he borrowed money for his home furnishings. Now he hopes that Aunt Pullet will lend him the money to pay the debt against which that furniture is lost. She can no longer afford to keep Maggie and Tom in school. When he learns that Mr. Wakem had paid his debts, the discovery causes him to have a stroke. Tom makes Maggie promise that she will never speak to Philip Wakem again. Mrs. Tulliver cries that her household belongings will be put up for sale at auction. In the ruin that follows, Tom and Maggie decline their aunts' dismissive offers of help. Bob Jakin, a country brute whom Tom had fought as a child, appears to offer Tom a partnership with him in a venture where Tom's education will aid Bob's native entrepreneurial savvy. Because they both have no capital, Tom takes a job in a warehouse for the moment and studies accounting at night. Mr. Wakem buys the mill but allows Mr. Tulliver to act as his wage manager. Wakem's plan is to finally hand the mill over to his son. Not knowing what else to do, Tulliver remains an employee of his enemy, but asks Tom to sign a statement in the Bible that he will wish the Wakems evil as long as he lives. Against Maggie's pleas, Tom signs his name. Finally, Aunt Glegg gives money to Tom, who invests with Bob Jakin ...

The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot Tom and Maggie Tulliver are two children who grew up in Dorlcote Mill, which has been in their family for generations. The children have many extended families living nearby, and their aunts and uncles often come to argue with each other and to scold Tom and Maggie. Tulliver's boys have a stormy relationship. They spend most of their time getting along or arguing horribly. Maggie in particular is very intelligent and very emotional and is always in trouble. Two main things are in the works for the Tullivers: school and a lawsuit. Tom and Maggie are both sent to school and Tom receives an extravagant, if pointless, education. At school he meets a deformed boy named Philip Wakem, son of Mr. Tulliver's archenemy. Mr. Tulliver does not like Mr. Wakem, a lawyer, as he is involved in a lawsuit against one of Wakem's clients. Mr. Tulliver loses the case and things quickly go downhill for the Tulliver family. They fail and Mr. Tulliver's health begins to deteriorate. Mr. Wakem buys the Tulliver family mill, which causes Mr. Tulliver to hate the Wakem even more and to curse them in the family Bible. After the case fails, Tulliver's kids are forced to drop out of school and start working. Tom is a slave to one of his uncles and is obsessed with paying off family debts. Maggie finds solace in an extreme form of religion, but she later sets it aside in favor of a secret friendship with Philip Wakem, who has been in love with Maggie since their first meeting. Maggie's passionate nature continues to cause her a lot of emotional distress. Tom discovers Maggie's relationship with Philip and forbids her to see him again. Maggie is torn, but decides that family loyalty comes first. Her relationship with Tom is severely damaged. Shortly thereafter, Tom manages to pay off his family debts, but the triumph is ruined when Mr. Tulliver attacks Mr. Wakem and then dies shortly thereafter. The Tullivers must get away from the mill. A few years pass and Maggie returns from a period as a governess to be with her cousin Lucy. Tom has made his way into his uncle's business and is now successful. Maggie meets Stephen Guest, Lucy's boyfriend, and the two quickly fall in love. Philip also returns and Maggie is involved in a messy love quadrilateral. Eventually, Stephen and Maggie are unable to control their feelings and the two try to escape. But Maggie has a crisis of conscience and she leaves Stephen, returning home in disgrace. Although Maggie reconciles with those closest to her, she is unable to make amends with the critic Tom. After a period of intense emotional pain for Maggie, the local river floods. Maggie goes to rescue Tom and the two reconcile their differences. But Tom and Maggie drowned in the flood. The other characters survive and move on with their lives and Tom and Maggie are buried together.
