Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mill at the Floss was George Eliot's book, after Scenes of Clerical Life (1858) and Adam Bede (1859). She commenced writing the radical in 1859 and it changed into first posted in 1860, with a few subsequent revised editions. The novel became eagerly predicted, as Adam Bede had been very a success, and it ended up being properly-acquired for the most element. It turned into now not as uniformly praised as Adam Bede have been upon publication, but it turned into also a greater bold work. Many critics vastly desired the primary half of Eliot's book The Mill at the Floss, which makes a specialty of Maggie and Tom Tulliver's childhoods, to the second one 1/2 - and specifically the finishing.The Mill on the Floss is Eliot's most autobiographical novel. Although the plot points do now not explicitly mirror occasions from Eliot's lifestyles, the character of Maggie Tulliver is the nearest approximation of Eliot to seem in her fiction, and he or she faces a number of the same struggles that Eliot did. The Tullivers are not meant to represent Eliot's parents, but Tom Tulliver could be very harking back to Eliot's brother Isaac Evans, and the Dodson aunts are paying homage to Eliot's aunts, the Pearsons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raised in the idyllic setting of Dorlcote Mill, the wild and wilful Maggie Tulliver adores her elder brother Tom and is forever trying to gain the approbation of her parents. Yet, as she grows older and the family struggle under the weight of severe pecuniary difficulties, she becomes increasingly caught between the divergent expectations of the four men in her life: a doting father, an obdurate and vengeful brother, a good-looking and frivolous suitor and an earnest old playmate who happens to be the son of her father and brother's sworn enemy. Tragic and affecting, and drawing heavily on George Eliot's own rural upbringing and relationship with her brother, The Mill on the Floss is one of literature's finest evocations of childhood and adolescence, and introduces, in Maggie Tulliver, one of the most beloved heroines in the English canon.

Book excerpt: Drawing on George Eliot's own childhood experiences to craft an unforgettable story of first love, sibling rivalry and regret, The Mill on the Floss is edited with an introduction and notes by A.S. Byatt, author of Possession, in Penguin Classics. 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; hunchbacked Tom Wakem, the son of her family's worst enemy; and the charismatic but dangerous Stephen Guest. 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, author of Possession, provides full explanatory notes and an introduction relating The Mill on the Floss to George Eliot's own life and times.

Book excerpt: I first read The Mill on the Floss when I was 17 years old. I couldn't put it down - read for 14 hours straight. However, many years later, I did not remember much about the book at all, only that I loved it. Now, after all these years, I see why.George Eliot is better at describing our innermost thoughts and feelings than any author I have ever read. Why do we read books? A good story is always entertaining, but more importantly, I think we read to gain new insights and to hear our own insights expressed more succinctly and beautifully than we could ever imagine doing ourselves.The Mill on the Floss starts off almost as a comedy, her dry wit, at least for me, is laugh out loud funny at times. It becomes increasingly more serious in tone and story line until the amazing ending.Take your time when you read Eliot (if you can). Savor every exquisite word and insight. Her gift in writing about the human condition was unparalleled

Download or read book The Mill on the Floss written by George Eliot and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-06 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mill on the Floss The Mill on the Floss is a novel by George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans), first published in three volumes in 1860 by William Blackwood. The first American edition was published by Harper & Brothers, Publishers, New York. 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. Maggie Tulliver is the protagonist and the story begins when she is 9 years old, 13 years into her parents' 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. Tom and Maggie have a close yet complex bond, which continues throughout the novel. Their relationship is coloured by Maggie's desire to recapture the unconditional love of her father before his death. Tom's pragmatic and reserved nature clashes with Maggie's idealism and fervor for intellectual gains and experience. 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, intensify Tom's and Maggie's differences and highlight their love for each other. To help his father repay his debts, Tom leaves school to enter a life of the business. He eventually finds a measure of success, restoring the family's former estate. Maggie languishes in the impoverished Tulliver home, her intellectual aptitude wasted in her socially isolated state. She passes through a period of tough spirituality, during which she renounces the world, motivated by her reading of Thomas à Kempis's The Imitation of Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mill on the Floss When George Eliot had finished a novel, she did not care to look at it again - e.g., she said of Romola, "I have not read it for ten years"; and when she is "deep in the fourth volume" of Deronda she "cannot any longer care for the first volume that is past and done for." But she always read new proofs scrupulously and was eager to make minor emendations, as shown by her thanking Mrs. Blackwood for her "hints on equine matters," by her hope that Mr. Blackwood will "rate the printers a little about their spacing," and by her saying of a new edition of Middlemarch, "I am anxious to correct the sheer both in relation to mistakes already standing, and to prevent the accumulation of others." Hence I have thought it worth while to follow the Cabinet Edition of 1878, which in many minor matters is an improvement upon the first form. The only alterations in spelling (except normalizing Sinbad and Sindbad, and changing the final vowel of particulum) are Americanizing forms like waggon and the terminations our, eable, ise, and lled. The punctuation has been altered in only two ways: inserting periods after Mr and Mrs, deleting about two dozen commas and semicolons before dashes. On what principles should this edition be annotated? Since there are in the reflective passages hundreds of words and allusions of which the ordinary high-school pupil is ignorant, and since explaining them all would convert a novel into a reference-book, notes have been limited by this test: Will a note add to a reader's pleasure by giving him a better understanding of the story? Only an omniscient sympathy could know certainly whether it is wise to define "pier-glass" and "comforter," to explain "sang froid" and omit "stoat"; but a real effort has been made in every case to decide whether "this will bring out the picture." Few biographical references have been given, and few definitions of words that can be found in a desk dictionary. The facts of George Eliot's life are mostly taken from J. W. Cross's three-volume biography - indeed there is hardly any other source. Mathilde Blind's Life has furnished some added items of interest, and Oscar Browning's a few.
