The Collected Letters of George Gissing
About The Collected Letters of George Gissing
This nine-volume series of the wide-ranging correspondence of one of the most gifted Victorian novelists is winner of the Modern Language Association’s Morton N. Cohen Award for a Distinguished Edition of Letters. Editors Paul F. Mattheisen, Arthur C. Young, and Pierre Coustillas have gathered Gissing’s copious correspondence from widely scattered sources and provide editorial context for the wealth of biographical and literary detail. Their careful editing and annotation are a framework for seeing Gissing (1857–1903) anew.
