The mill on the floss

Today I read "The Mill on the floss".
Maggie Tulliver is the main character. She is clever and strong women. But she always lonely and unhappy. She loves her brother Tom. The feeling tortured her with jealously.
Phillip Waken loves Maggie. But she can't meet him because the Tulliver and the Waken are enemies.
Maggie wants to escape the real world, so she joined Gypsy's world. But she dosen't like that so she returned to her family.
Maggie meets Stephen Guest. They fall in love but he is going to be married to maggies's cousin.

I like this book because the description of the old style England's country side is very beautiful.
I leaned autor's childhood from this book.
