The Mill on the Floss

The main character of the novel is Maggie Tulliver, an intelligent and passionate child and young woman, whose mental, romantic, and moral struggles we follow closely. As in Eliot’s other novels, the author shows a realistic and sympathetic understanding of human behavior.

The Mill on the Floss is regarded as a classic of English literature, and has been made into both a film and a television series.
