Maggie and Tom Tulliver are both wilful, passionate children, and their relationship has always been tempestuous. As they grow up together on the banks of the River Floss, Tom''s self-righteous stubbornness and Maggie''s emotional intensity increasingly brings them into conflict, particularly when Maggie''s beauty sparks some ill-fated attachments. George Eliot''s story of a brother and sister bound together by their errors and affections is told with tenderness, energy and a profound understanding of human nature.
