George —, author of novels The Mill on the Floss and Adam Bede (5)

I believe the answer is:

eliot

(Other definitions for eliot that I've seen before include "T.S. or George?" , "Author of Adam Bede, d.1880" , "The Waste Land author" , "Murder in the Cathedral author" , "George - - (novelist)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
