Eliot's rich prose delves deep into the human psyche, unraveling the complicated webs of desire and destiny that bind us all. A Glimpse Inside “Life did change for Tom and Maggie; and yet they were not wrong in believing that the thoughts and loves of these first years would always make part of their lives. We could never have loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it,—if it were not the earth where the same flowers come up again every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers as we sat lisping to ourselves on the grass; the same hips and haws on the autumn’s hedgerows; the same redbreasts that we used to call “God’s birds,” because they did no harm to the precious crops. What novelty is worth that sweet monotony where everything is known, and loved because it is known?” Chapter V. - Tom Comes Home A Splendid Edition At Leisure Leaf Publishers, every attempt is made to ensure that the original integrity of ‘The Mill on the Floss’ book has been maintained to the greatest extent possible.
