Autorenporträt
George Gissing, an English novelist renowned for his realistic portrayal of the lower middle class, was born on November 22, 1857, in Wakefield, Yorkshire, and passed away on December 28, 1903. Gissing's works often reflect his own struggles with poverty and his failed relationships, elements that lend his narratives a poignant sense of authenticity. Known for his meticulous character development and insightful social commentary, Gissing authored a number of significant Victorian novels, including 'New Grub Street' (1891) and 'The Odd Women' (1893). His book 'Will Warburton: A Novel of the Days of the Most Significant Novel (1905)' is another testament to his narrative skill, offering a compelling exploration of the life of a well-to-do man who faces a swift reversal of fortune and must navigate lower-class existence while maintaining dignity and integrity. Despite his considerable output of some 23 novels, Gissing never achieved a great deal of financial success during his lifetime, though his literary reputation has grown posthumously. Notable for their gritty realism, Gissing's novels continue to be studied for their critical examination of Victorian society and their unvarnished portrayal of the difficult lives led by many during the era.
