Tungkol sa ebook na ito
Set in London’s Grub Street, famous for the large number of ‘hack writers’ and mediocre publishers who resided therein, New Grub Street tells a tale of stark contrast: of Edwin Reardon, a critically acclaimed but not commercially successful novelist, and of his friend Jasper Milvain, a decent writer who cares more about money than the craft. Reardon’s marriage to the sophisticated Amy Yule is precariously close to failing: he married her through the merit of his literary successes, but he is not earning nearly enough money to support the two of them. Tensions are high, and at some point things must come to a head. And so the stage is set…
New Grub Street is semi-autobiographical, drawing on Gissing’s own experiences as an author in literary circles of the time.
George Gissing was a 19th century British author best remembered for his novels New Grub Street and The Odd Women and his criticism and analysis of Charles Dickens’ works. Part of the Naturalist literary movement, he was considered one of the finest English novelists of his time and was praised by his contemporaries, including G.K. Chesterton and George Orwell.
