"The Mill on the Floss" is one of Eliot's best written novels. The novel is highly concerned with a morality that should function among all people. Eliot fights against the influence of class, money, gender, and even handicap, repeatedly showing that being a good person is independent of these things. A true classic!

The haunting debut novel that put Kate Zambreno on the map, O Fallen Angel, is a provocative, voice-driven story of a family in crisis—and, more broadly, the crisis of the American family—now repackaged and with a new introduction by Lidia Yuknavitch. Inspired by Francis Bacon's Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion, Kate Zambreno's brilliant novel is a triptych of modern-day America set in a banal Midwestern landscape, told from three distinct, unforgettable points of view. There is "Mommy," a portrait of housewife psychosis, fenced in by her own small mind. There is "Maggie," Mommy's unfortunate daughter whom she infects with fairytales. Then there is the mysterious martyr-figure Malachi, a Cassandra in army fatigues, the Septimus Smith to Mommy's Mrs. Dalloway, who stands at the foot of the highway holding signs of fervent prophecy, gaping at the bottomless abyss of the human condition, while SUVs scream past. Deeply poignant, sometimes hilarious, and other times horrifying, O Fallen Angel is satire at its best.

"Dear heart!" said Mrs. Tulliver, "how can you talk so, Mr. Tulliver? However, ifTom's to go to a new school, I should like him to go where I can wash him andmend him; else he might as well have calico as linen, for they'd be one as yallow asth' other before they'd been washed half a dozen times. And then, when the box isgoin' backards and forrards, I could send the lad a cake, or a pork-pie, or an apple.""Well, well, we won't send him out o' reach o' the carrier's cart, if other things fitin," said Mr. Tulliver. "But you mustn't put a spoke i' the wheel about the washin' ifwe can't get a school near enough. But it's an uncommon puzzling thing to knowwhat school to pick."

George Eliot (1819-1880) is known for her psychoanalysis of the majority of her characters in her literary works. In her second novel, The Mill on the Floss (1860), she focuses on the fictional minds’ subjective first thoughts and intentions. She shows how their unsympathetic workings cause private and collective tragedy by the end of narrative. The novel has frequently been acclaimed by critics and readers alike. However, this book presents a re-evaluation of the text with the help of terminologies borrowed from cognitive narratology in order to shed new light on the significance of one-track minds in this narrative. The book explores the mental functioning of the individual fictional minds, and examines how different modes of mental activities influence the interpersonal relationships between and among the characters. Accordingly, the study argues that the main cause of tragedy in The Mill on the Floss stems from at least two factors. First, the central fictional minds primarily function on the basis of their self-centered thoughts and emotions, over which they usually do not have control. Second, the tragedy is an effect of the social minds’ or public opinion’s unforgetting, unforgiving, and unsympathetic perspectives of any unconventional behavior.
