The Mill on the Floss ( II）佛罗斯河畔上的磨坊（英文版） (English Edition)

The Mill on the Floss is a novel by George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans), first published in three volumes in 1860. Maggie Tulliver is the protagonist and the story begins when she is 9 years old.The Mill on the Floss is the story of Maggie Tulliver’s search for love, and acceptance by her family and community, and of her need for intellectual and spiritual growth. 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. Misunderstood Maggie Tulliver is torn. Her rebellious and passionate nature demands expression, while her provincial kin and community expect self-denial. Based closely on the author's own life, Maggie's story explores the conflicts of love and loyalty and the friction between desire and moral responsibility. A classic work of 19th century literature, "The Mill on the Floss" remains a popular and enduring example of George Eliot's impact on English literature.
