About this audiobook
George Eliot
George Eliot was the pseudonym for Mary Anne Evans, one of the leading writers of the Victorian era, who published seven major novels and several translations during her career. She started her career as a sub-editor for the left-wing journal The Westminster Review, contributing politically charged essays and reviews before turning her attention to novels. Among Eliot’s best-known works are Adam Bede, The Mill on the Floss, Silas Marner, Middlemarch and Daniel Deronda, in which she explores aspects of human psychology, focusing on the rural outsider and the politics of small-town life. Eliot died in 1880.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The best book and the best narrative I love it so much
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The reader, Jill Tanner, is excellent. She captures both Maggie's wild liveliness and the voices of the male characters very well. The Mill On The Floss is as good as Middlemarch, in some ways even deeper in its depiction of a brother and sister relationship. The last ten percent becomes appallingly melodramatic but this doesn't spoil what went before.
