About this listen
"There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our greatest sorrow."
In The Mill on the Floss, George Eliot weaves a poignant and powerful tale of love, family, and the complexities of fate. Set in the small English town of St. Ogg’s, the novel follows siblings Tom and Maggie Tulliver as they navigate the turbulent waters of growing up. From their idyllic childhood by the river to the adult lives shaped by societal expectations, their bond is both a source of comfort and conflict.
Maggie, intelligent and passionate, is torn between her desire for intellectual freedom and the oppressive social norms of her time. As she struggles to break free from the constraints placed on her as a woman, her choices—especially in love—lead her down a difficult and tragic path. Tom, her more conventional brother, is bound by duty and honor, but even he cannot escape the powerful forces that shape their destinies.
