Summary

Raised in the idyllic setting of Dorlcote Mill, the wild and wilful Maggie Tulliver adores her elder brother Tom and is forever trying to gain the approbation of her parents. Yet, as she grows older and the Tulliver family struggle under the twin burdens of severe pecuniary difficulties and the loss of their good name, Maggie is increasingly caught between her own hopes, desires and sensibilities, and those of the four men in her life: a doting father, an obdurate and vengeful brother, a good-looking and frivolous suitor and an earnest, faithful old playmate who happens to be the son of her father and brother's sworn enemy.
