  The Mill on the Floss is George Eliot's second novel, and was published in 1860, only a year after her first, Adam Bede. It centres on the lives of brother and sister Tom and Maggie Tulliver growing up on the river Floss near the town of St. Oggs (a fictionalised version of Gainsborough, in Lincolnshire, England) in the years following the Napoleonic Wars, with both as young adults eventually meeting a tragic end by the Mill which the family holds so dear. In large measure, their lives are dominated by their father, a successful miller brought down by his inability to resist settling arguments in a court of law. Character differences between Tom and Maggie - he dour and rigid of thought, she lively and impulsive - seem to matter little in childhood, but eventually strain their relationship beyond breaking point. It is Maggie, however, who is the dominant character of the book, arguably one of the great characters of 19th century literature. Each of her relationships is vital to the narrative: with her parents, with Tom above all, but on a romantic level with Philip Wakem, the sensitive hunchbacked son of her father's (and Tom's) bitterest enemy, and with charming and urbane Stephen Guest, fiance of Maggie's cousin Lucy Deane. Maggie's life is changed utterly by an impulsive elopement which she turns back from, but too late to stop the inevitable abuse and contempt. This is a semi-autobiographical reflection of the vilification which George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) herself had to endure while openly living with a married man, a time when her brother was willing to communicate with her only through lawyers. Eliot writes of character and relationships with an insight and sharp detail that few authors have ever equaled. It's a long book, but you will appreciate it for its depth

  "A Decision That Can Change the Fate of a Nation… But Can He Stop Himself from Changing?" 
  An honest judge, whose every verdict was as firm as stone, now stands at the crossroads of the toughest decision of his life. A man who has spent his entire life upholding truth and justice now faces not only political pressure but also a challenge from within his own family. The very morality he once took pride in has now become his greatest test. 
  When he exposes electoral fraud, his ruling sends shockwaves through the corridors of power, making him the biggest enemy of corrupt politicians. But the greatest betrayal comes not from the outside, but from his own home―his family, whom he always sought to protect, now compels him to accept bribes and compromise with power. 
  Now, the system offers him the highest position in the country―on one condition: he must abandon his principles. With pressure mounting from all sides―politics, the system, and his own family―he must make a choice.
