Maggie Tulliver, whose father owns a mill perched on the banks of the River Floss, is intelligent and imaginative beyond the understanding of her community, her relatives, and particularly her brother Tom. Despite their opposite temperaments, Maggie and Tom are united by a strong bond. But this bond suffers when Tom's sense of family honor leads him to forbid her to associate with the one friend who appreciates her intelligence and imagination.

Nadia May is an amazing storyteller. She gets into the characters' minds and represents their speech beautifully and beliveably. I highly recommend this audio version of this novel.
As for the novel itself: Although I was obligated to read it for a Victorian literature class it is a great read. It provides a unique picture of Victorian England's countryside. And Eliot is a master at capturing voice and of depicting childhood from a child's point of view.
The story is centered around the coming of age of Maggie Tulliver -- an clever, idealistic girl who longs for knowledge, acceptance and love.
This is a semi-biographical work so, it's a must-read if you want to know more about Eliot.
