"The Mill on the Floss" is widely regarded as George Eliot's most autobiographical novel. Maggie Tulliver is often seen as an avatar for Eliot, who also grew up as a bookish and intelligent girl in a rural community, a farm in Warwickshire, that didn't support her literary ambitions. "The Mill on the Floss" is set in the 1820s, in the period following the Napoleonic wars. In the wake of Britain's triumph, many of the inhabitants of St. Ogg's-a fictional town in Lincolnshire, a region in the northeast of England-feel confident about the British empire and its predominance in the world. At the same time, however, there are some suggestions of social and political unrest.
