About the Book

Tom and Maggie Tulliver by George Eliot is a novel that delves into the complexities of family, identity, and the tension between individual desires and societal expectations. The story centers around the Tulliver siblings, Tom and Maggie and their father, Mr. Tulliver who has high hopes for his son to excel academically and succeed. Maggie, with her lively imagination and adventurous spirit, stands in contrast to Tom, who is more dutiful and obedient, carrying the weight of his father’s expectations. The novel begins with the family’s discussions about education, with the father’s desire for Tom to be educated and achieve success, while Mrs. Tulliver expresses her concerns over both children’s differing abilities and temperaments. Maggie’s fiery nature and quest for emotional fulfillment set her on a path that often challenges the rigid social norms of the time, while Tom’s more conventional nature leads him down a path of stability and responsibility. The story lays the foundation for the siblings’ individual struggles, highlighting their emotional complexities and the strain between their personal yearnings and the demands placed on them by family and society.
