The Mill on the Floss [A Review]
Title
The Mill on the Floss [A Review]
Description
- "The new story by the author of Adam Bede is full of power--a vague word to use, but, as far as anyone word can stamp a whole work of art, it is the only word with any approach to fitness in it. The story is in the main the record of the struggle of a young girl towards a noble life--a life she can intensely feel to be alone worthy of a woman, but which she has not the simple strength of will and act to realize at once its directness."
