The Collected Letters of George Gissing Volume 8
1900–1902
By George Gissing
·
Edited by Paul F. Mattheisen, Arthur C. Young, and Pierre Coustillas
For many years, the only Gissing letters available to the public were those in the modest selection of letters to his family published in 1927. In the following years a good number were published separately in such places as journals, memoirs, and sales catalogues, but like the single and small groups of unpublished letters scattered in libraries around the world, they remained in practical terms inaccessible.
The Collected Letters of George Gissing Volume 5
1892-1895

Edited by Paul F. Mattheisen, Arthur C. Young, and Pierre Coustillas
Gissing’s career, which spanned the period of about 1877 to his death in 1903, was characterized by prodigious output (almost a novel a year in the early days), modest recognition, and modest income. He wrote of poverty, socialism, class differences, social reform, and later on, about the problems of women and industrialization.
