A deft gateway to a world where duty and desire collide, and where the street's bustle mirrors the weight of conscience. The Celt and Saxon (Volume II) returns with a renewed voice. George Meredith crafts a razor-edged historical novel set in Victorian Britain, where industrialisation sharpens social divides and conscience is tested by loyalty, romance, and social duty.

A deft gateway to a world where duty and desire collide, and where the street's bustle mirrors the weight of conscience. The Celt and Saxon (Volume II) returns with a renewed voice. George Meredith crafts a razor-edged historical novel set in Victorian Britain, where industrialisation sharpens social divides and conscience is tested by loyalty, romance, and social duty. The narrative blends keen social satire with a humane study of character, offering readers a vivid portrait of late nineteenth-century life: the tensions of class, the pull of personal identity, and the quiet courage required to navigate moral dilemmas. It is both an intimate romance and a broad meditation on society, power, and responsibility. This edition recognises the work's literary and historical significance, honouring Meredith's place among classic british novels while highlighting its relevance to readers today. The story rewards careful readers-students and scholars alike-with its intricate social maps and moral questions, yet remains accessible to casual readers drawn to a compelling tale and a richly realised Victorian britain setting. For library reading, for study, for those who love a masterclass in social satire fiction, it stands as a touchstone of Victorian era fiction and British literary heritage. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, restored for today's and future generations. A worthy companion for anyone exploring industrialisation and class, romance and social duty, or the broader landscape of classic british literature.
