Was her life to be always like this? - always bringing some new source of inward strife? When the miller Mr Tulliver becomes entangled in lawsuits - he sets off a chain of events that will profoundly affect the lives of his family and bring into conflict his passionate daughter Maggie with her inflexible but adored brother Tom. As she grows older - Maggies discovery of romantic love draws her once more into a struggle to reconcile familial and moral claims with her own desires. Strong-willed - compassionate - and intensely loyal - Maggie seeks personal happiness and inner peace but risks rejection and ostracism in her close-knit community.
