Based on George Eliot's own growing-up years, this 1860 novel is her most overtly autobiographical work. Even the precisely described scenery reflects the area in Warwickshire where she was raised. THE MILL ON THE FLOSS is the story of affectionate, willful Maggie Tulliver, who is hungry for knowledge and experience, and her more conventional and intolerant brother, Tom--a relationship that mirrors that of George Eliot herself and her beloved brother, Isaac. When Maggie's virtue is compromised on an excursion with her cousin's fiancé, her brother repudiates her, and the two become estranged. The book's rather lurid ending--which involves a devastating flood--is controversial: it has even been considered by some critics to have incestuous overtones. But there is no denying that the ending is thematically appropriate, functioning not only as a dramatic climax to the events but as a metaphor for the passion that is the driving force in the story. THE MILL ON THE FLOSS, one of George Eliot's most enduring novels, is a particularly satisfying example of her domestic realism and her intense sensitivity to the rhythms of rural life.

评分 评分今天和祝庆英本对读了一下开头和结尾。总的感觉是两个本子的译者不知是谁参考了谁，很多地方挺像，但是感觉伍厚恺更好一些，这个印象还是挺鲜明的。艾略特这样真正好的作家，关注太少了（我幼儿时期只知道她是职工马南，还曾错误的把她归为穿破裤子的慈善家那样的作家呢！后来...

It really took me a long time to finish this book.... mainly because time schedule...and also the story isn’t the most attractive one. But can’t deny, the writer is a good player of words. Her sentences are elegant and beautiful.
