书籍简介

乔治·爱略特(1819—1880)，英国十九世纪著名女作家，《弗洛斯河上的磨房》是她的代表作。十九世纪中叶的英国小镇圣奥格有一位磨坊主塔利弗，他生性善良而固执，因经营不善而破产，产业全部落人对手威根姆律师的手中，而他心爱的女儿麦琪与哥哥汤姆从小感情深厚，可是同样固执的汤姆却为此事跟妹妹有了隔阂。几年后，刻苦努力的汤姆用攒下的钱买回了父亲生前失去的产业，全家生活有了转机，这时汤姆发现表妹的情人在热烈地追求麦琪。新的变化又在等待他们。

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 family struggle under the weight of severe pecuniary difficulties, she becomes increasingly caught between the divergent expectations of the four men in her life: a doting father, an obdurate and vengeful brother, a good-looking and frivolous suitor and an earnest old playmate who happens to be the son of her father and brother's sworn enemy. Tragic and affecting, and drawing heavily on George Eliot's own rural upbringing and relationship with her brother, The Mill on the Floss is one of literature's finest evocations of childhood and adolescence, and introduces, in Maggie Tulliver, one of the most beloved heroines in the English canon.

作者简介

乔治•艾略特(George Eliot，1819—1880)是英国维多利亚时代著名作家之一，原名玛丽-安•伊文思(Marry Ann Evans)，生长在英国华立克郡。父亲是一处大庄园的代理人。乔治•艾略特从小就比较熟悉英国农村的风土人情。因此，她的小说清新优美，极富田园生活的大自然的气息。乔治•艾略特的早年作品都流露出了她对英国乡村生活的亲身体验。在这些小说中，艾略特用较多的篇幅描绘乡村的风光和生活习俗，歌颂英国农民在宗法制社会中的怡然自得的乐趣，表达了她对田园生活的向往和她对宗法制社会的留恋。但她在创作中显示了现实主义小说的新特征，如独特的哲学视角和细腻的心理分析。她重视对人物内心世界的关注和对人性的体察。在她的处女作《亚当•贝德》和第二部小说《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》中，她的创作特点分别得到了很好的体现。如果和《亚当•贝德》中占优势的田园乡村的题材相比，《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》是一部发出悲剧声响的作品。

Mary Ann Evans (1819-1880), better known by her pen name George Eliot, was one of the leading writers of the Victorian era. Her novels, largely set in provincial England, are well known for their realism and psychological insight. Middlemarch is her masterpiece.
