New Grub Street (1891), George Gissing's most highly regarded novel,
is the story of men and women forced to make their living by writing.
Their daily lives and broken dreams, made and marred by the rigors of
urban life and the demands of the fledgling mass communications
industry, are presented with vivid realism and unsentimental
sympathy. Its telling juxtaposition of the writing careers of the
clever and malicious Jaspar Milvain and the honest and struggling
Edward Reardon quickly made New Grub Street into a classic work of
late Victorian fiction.
