Description

Franklin Library leather edition of George Eliot's "The Mill on the Floss," a Limited edition, Illustrated by Paul Geiger, one of the 100 GREATEST BOOKS OF ALL TIME series, published in 1982. Bound in gray leather, the book has matching moire silk end leaves, hubbed spine, satin book marker, gold gilding on three edges---in FINE condition. Mary Ann Evans, who lived from 1819 – 1880, also known by her pen name George Eliot, was an English novelist, and one of the leading writers of the Victorian era. "The Mill on the Floss" spans a period of 10 to 15 years and details the lives of Tom and Maggie Tulliver, siblings growing up at fictional village of Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss near the village of St. Ogg's in Lincolnshire, England. Maggie Tulliver, the central character of the book, is 9 years old when the novel begins. Her relationship with her older brother Tom, and her romantic relationships with Philip Wakem, a hunchbacked, sensitive, and intellectual friend, and with Stephen Guest, a vivacious young socialite in St. Ogg's and assumed fiancé of Maggie's cousin Lucy Deane, constitute the most significant narrative threads. Tom and Maggie have a close yet complex bond. Their relationship is colored by Maggie's desire to recapture the unconditional love her father provides before his death. Tom's pragmatic and reserved nature clashes with Maggie's idealism and fervor for intellectual gains and experience. I offer Combined shipping.

    Quite the surprised, at first I thought I ordered something from a pet shop because of the box turns out to be my order xD. My books were well packaged no noticeable box damage internally and externally. They were as described in the listing and shipped promptly in a 2 weeks window. Would recommend seller.
