Book excerpt: Maggie Tulliver is the impetuous, clever younger daughter of the Tullivers ofDorlcote Mill in St. Ogg's. Maggie frustrates her superficial mother with herunconventional dark coloring and unnatural activeness and intelligence.Maggie's father often takes Maggie's side, but it is Maggie's older brother Tomupon whom she is emotionally dependent. Maggie's greatest happiness is Tom'saffection, and his disapproval creates dramatic despair in Maggie, whose viewof the world, as all children's, lacks perspective.Though Tom is less studious than Maggie appears to be, Mr. Tulliver decidesto pay for Tom to have additional education rather than have him take over themill. This decision provokes a family quarrel between Mr. Tulliver and his wife'ssisters, the Dodsons. Mr. Tulliver is frustrated by the snobbish contrariness ofthe Dodsons, led by Mrs. Tulliver's sister Mrs. Glegg, and vows to repay moneythat Mrs. Glegg had lent him, thereby weakening her hold on him. He has lentalmost an equal sum to his sister and her husband, the Mosses, but he feelsaffectionately toward his sister and decides not to ask for money back, whichthey cannot pay.Mr. Stelling, a clergyman, takes Tom on as a student, and Maggie visits him atschool several times. On one of these visits, she befriends Mr. Stelling's otherstudent--the sensitive, crippled Philip Wakem, son of her father's enemy, LawyerWakem. Maggie herself is sent to school along with her cousin, Lucy, but iscalled home when she is thirteen when her father finally loses his extendedlawsuit with Lawyer Wakem over the use of the river Floss. Mr. Tulliver isrendered bankrupt and ill. Tom returns home as well to support the family, as theDodson's offer little help. The mill itself is up for auction, and Lawyer Wakem,based on an idea inadvertently furnished to him by Mrs. Tulliver, buys DorlcoteMill and retains Mr. Tulliver as a manager in an act of humiliating patronage.Even after Mr. Tulliver's recovery, the atmosphere at the Tullivers' is grim.One bright spot is the return of Bob Jakin, a childhood friend of Tom's, into Tomand Maggie's life. Bob, a trader, kindly buys books for Maggie and one of them--Thomas a Kempis's The Imitation of Christ--influences a spiritual awakeningin her that leads to many months of pious self-denial. It is only after Maggiereencounters Philip Wakem on one of her walks in the woods that she ispersuaded to leave her martyrish dullness in favor of the richness of literatureand human interaction. Philip and Maggie meet clandestinely for a year, sinceMaggie's father would be hurt by their friendship as he has sworn to holdLawyer Wakem as his life-long enemy. Philip finally confesses to Maggie that heloves her, and Maggie, at first surprised, says she loves him back. Soonthereafter, Tom discovers their meetings, cruelly upbraids Philip, and makesMaggie swear not to see Philip again.On a business venture with Bob Jakin, Tom has amassed enough money to payoff Mr. Tulliver's debts to the family's surprise and relief. On the way home fromthe official repayment of the debts, Mr. Tulliver meets Lawyer Wakem andattacks him, but then Mr. Tulliver falls ill himself and dies the next day.Several years later, Maggie has been teaching in another village. Now a tall,striking woman, she returns to St. Ogg's to visit her cousin Lucy, who has takenin Mrs. Tulliver. Lucy has a handsome and rich suitor named Stephen Guest, andthey are friends with Philip Wakem. Maggie asks Tom for permission to seePhilip, which Tom grudgingly gives her. Maggie and Philip renew their closefriendship, and Maggie would consider marriage to Philip, if only his fatherapproved. Lucy realizes that Tom wishes to purchase back Dorlcote Mill, andshe asks Philip to speak to his father, Lawyer Wakem.

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: 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: 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
