New Grub Street
George Gissing
New Grub Street by George Gissing is a compelling exploration of the literary world and the struggles of writers in late 19th-century London. The novel contrasts two authors: Edwin Reardon, a talented but impoverished novelist who values artistic integrity, and Jasper Milvain, an ambitious opportunist who prioritizes commercial success. As they navigate the harsh realities of the publishing industry, Reardon’s dedication to his craft leaves him financially ruined and emotionally broken, while Milvain’s pragmatic approach propels him to fame and fortune. Gissing critiques the commodification of art, the sacrifices demanded by poverty, and the moral compromises of ambition. Through its vivid characters and unflinching portrayal of societal pressures, New Grub Street examines the tension between art and commerce, offering a poignant reflection on the cost of creativity in a materialistic world. A timeless classic, it resonates with anyone who has grappled with the pursuit of success versus staying true to one’s ideals.
