As the headstrong Maggie Tulliver grows into womanhood, the deep love which she has for her brother Tom turns into conflict, because she can not reconcile his bourgeois standards with her own lively intelligence. She is unable to adapt to or break free from her community, and tragedy, on more than one level, is the result.
