The Mill on the Floss - George Eliot - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

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.Mary Ann Evans (1819-80) began her literary career as a translator, and later editor, of the Westminster Review . In 1857, she published Scenes of Clerical Life , the first of eight novels she would publish under the name of ''George Eliot'', including The Mill on the Floss , Middlemarch , and Daniel Deronda .If you enjoyed The Mill on the Floss , you might like Thomas Hardy''s Jude the Obscure , also available in Penguin Classics.

Maggie Tulliver is a brilliant woman who finds herself at the center of a love triangle between her childhood crush and a cousin’s potential fiancé. The controversial romance makes her a town pariah, damaging her most beloved relationships. Maggie adores her older brother Tom, who’s a consistent yet sometimes adversarial figure. She’s an idealistic student of the world, while Tom is more of a conservative. Their sibling dynamic is tested by Maggie’s interactions with two male suitors: Philip Wakem and Stephen Guest. Philip is the son of their father’s mortal enemy, while Stephen is already linked to their cousin Lucy. When Maggie’s dalliance with the latter is exposed, she is immediately shunned by the locals, including her brother. The Mill on the Floss is an examination of the complex dynamic between family and friends. Like many of Eliot’s novels, it highlights the dangers of groupthink and individual oppression. In this case, Maggie must sacrifice her personal happiness for the acceptance of others.
