The classic tale of one young woman’s quest for fulfillment in 1820s England, and the price she would pay for true freedom. Maggie Tulliver’s entire life has been spent in the shadow of Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss with her beloved older brother, Tom. But when their father meets an untimely death, the siblings’ singular bond is strained as Tom is forced to leave his studies and Maggie struggles to find a sense of belonging. Maggie’s sharp intelligence and spirited nature have made her an oddity in the rural hamlet of St. Ogg’s, where such unique qualities are perceived as unbecoming for a woman. Her need for recognition and love eventually drives her to defy her brother, who casts her out of his house to survive on her own. Forced to grieve the losses of both their father and each other, the siblings will have to find it in their hearts to forgive in order to reconcile before tragedy strikes again. Inspired by events in the life of the author, The Mill on the Floss is George Eliot’s most heartfelt novel and one of her most compelling and moving works. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.

The Mill on the Floss is a novel by George Eliot. The novel details the lives of Tom and Maggie Tulliver, a brother and sister growing up at Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss. Maggie Tulliver holds the central role in the book. The story begins when she is 9 years old, 13 years into her parent's marriage. Her relationship with her older brother Tom, and her romantic relationships with Philip Wakem, a hunchbacked, sensitive, and intellectual friend, and with Stephen Guest, a vivacious young socialite in St. Ogg's and assumed fiancé of Maggie's cousin Lucy Deane, constitute the most significant narrative threads. Various family crises, including bankruptcy, Mr. Tulliver's rancorous relationship with Philip Wakem's father, which results in the loss of the mill, and Mr. Tulliver's untimely death, serve both to intensify Tom's and Maggie's differences and to highlight their love for each other.

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.

Brought up at Dorlcote Mill, Maggie Tulliver worships her brother Tom and is desperate to win the approval of her parents, but her passionate, wayward nature and her fierce intelligence bring her into constant conflict with her family. As she reaches adulthood, the clash between their expectations and her desires is painfully played out as she finds herself torn between her relationships with three very different men: her proud and stubborn brother, a close friend who is also the son of her family's worst enemy, and a charismatic but dangerous suitor. With its poignant portrayal of sibling relationships, The Mill on the Floss is considered George Eliot's most autobiographical novel; it is also one of her most powerful and moving. In this edition writer and critic A.S. Byatt provides full explanatory notes and an introduction relating Mill on the Floss to George Eliot's own life and times.

Spanning a period of 10 to 15 years, the novel details the lives of Tom and Maggie Tulliver, siblings growing up at Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss. The mill is situated at the junction of the River Floss and the more minor River Ripple, near the village of St Ogg's in Lincolnshire, England. Both the river and the village are fictional.The novel begins in the late 1820s or early 1830s - several historical references place the events in the book after the Napoleonic Wars but before the Reform Act of 1832. (In chapter 3, the character Mr Riley is described as an "auctioneer and appraiser thirty years ago", placing the opening events of the novel in approximately 1829, thirty years before the novel's composition in 1859. In chapter 8, Mr Tulliver and Mr Deane discuss the Duke of Wellington and his "conduct in the Catholic Question", a conversation that could only take place after 1828, when Wellington became Prime Minister and supported a bill for Catholic Emancipation). The novel includes many autobiographical elements and reflects the disgrace that George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) experienced while in a lengthy relationship with a married man, George Henry Lewes.
