New Grub Street is a powerful exploration of the plight of the professional writer in a philistine age, contrasting the idealistic Edwin Reardon with the cynical Jasper Milvain. It explores the dichotomy between literary merit and commercial success.

Publisher: Alma Books Ltd
In late-Victorian London, two writers of contrasting temperaments navigate the literary world. Edwin Reardon, a talented novelist with an idealistic nature, struggles financially, while Jasper Milvain, a driven journalist, thrives in the market-driven world of hack writing. Reardon's uncompromising artistic integrity leads to the breakdown of his marriage, forcing him to confront the true cost of his commitment to elevated principles and his resistance to pandering to the demands of the marketplace. New Grub Street, published in 1891 and hailed by Orwell as Gissing's masterpiece, is a powerful and haunting exploration of the plight of the professional writer in a philistine age, as well as the enduring dichotomy between literary merit and commercial success.
