The Mill on the Floss (1860) by George Eliot follows Maggie and Tom Tulliver growing up near the fictional town of St. Ogg’s, England. Maggie, intelligent and passionate, frequently clashes with her conservative family's expectations. Eliot’s writing blends lyrical prose with deep philosophical insights and emotional depth, securing her place as a standout in 19th-century literature. R.T. Jones, an Honorary Fellow at the University of York, provides valuable context and analysis of classic works like this one. A timeless exploration of love, loss, and societal pressures, this novel remains a jewel of English literature..
