Clara Collet and George Gissing "On my way home at night an anguish of suffering in the thought that I can never hope to have an intellectual companion at home. Condemned for ever to associate with inferiors - and so crassly unintelligent. Never a word exchanged on anything but the paltry everyday life of the household. Never a word to me, from anyone, of understanding, sympathy or of encouragement." ( London and the Life of Literature in Late Victorian England The Diary of George Gissing (London: The Harvester Press, 1978) 24 Jan 1893 George Gissing 1857-1903 George Gissing's life had been difficult almost from the beginning. He had grown up as the son of a pharmaceutical chemist in Wakefield, Yorkshire. For the first thirteen years his life had been one of pleasure and happiness, but at that age his father died leaving his mother to try to bring up their five children. George managed to gain a place, with financial help from a friend, at Owens College Manchester. This meant leaving his home and living in lodgings at the very young age of 16. Despite being brilliant academically, he was unable to cope socially with such a break from home. In order to relieve his loneliness he befriended a prostitute, Nell, for whom he had ideas of reform. Unfortunately, despite her beauty and tender years, she had already become a hopeless alcoholic. Gissing, determined to keep her from the streets, was forced to steal from his fellow students in order to pay for Nell's gin. He was caught in the act and sent for one month's hard labour.

George Gissing The 'Summerhill' Connection George Gissing (1857-1903) was a late-Victorian English writer best remembered for his novels 'New Grub Street' and 'The Odd Women' but these are the highlights of a career which, though short, was marked by relentless industry: he wrote another 21 novels, more than a hundred short stories, a travel book, literary criticism (on Dickens), essays, and enough letters to fill nine volumes. The details of his private life, which for much of his time was very unhappy, have fascinated generations of readers. We have been contacted by Dr Bouwe Postmus, who is a lecturer in English Literature at the University of Amsterdam, and he informs us that he has written a number of books about the English novelist. We have since discovered that even today George Gissing has a large international following, that he befriended Thomas Hardy, George Meredith and H.G Wells and that in the twentieth century George Orwell was a great admirer of his work. But it was from the collected letters of George Gissing that Bouwe Postmus brought to our attention the historical connections that George Gissing has with Summerhill Road. There follow some extracts from the information provided by Bouwe Postmus: It was in December 1878 that George Gissing read the following advertisement in the Personal columns of a leading London newspaper.

George Robert Gissing Biography Novelist; left Owens College, Manchester , in disgrace for America, where he wandered penniless until 1877; studied literature and philosophy at Jena; returned to England, 1878; published Workers in the Dawn (1880); found an appreciative reader in Frederic Harrison, to whose sons he became tutor, 1882; gained precarious livelihood by occasional journalism; published The Unclassed Demos (1886), and other novels illustrating degrading effects of poverty on character; visited Naples, Rome, and Athens; published A Life’s Morning The Nether World The Emancipated New Grub Street Born in Exile (1892), and The Odd Women (1893); revisited Italy with H. G. Wells, 1897, recording some experiences and impressions in By the Ionian Sea (1901); in Rome he found material for historical romance Veranilda (published posthumously, 1907); on return to England wrote The Town Traveller (1898) and Our Friend the Charlatan (1901); died of pneumonia at St Jean-de-Luz Some of his conclusions were conservative, but at heart he was a late-Victorian rebel against the power of convention. His rebellion was muted because he was preoccupied with failure. He had collected as great a store of specialized information about people who failed as Samuel Smiles had collected of people who succeeded.

38. George Gissing's Letters The Collected Letters of George Gissing. Ed. Paul F. Mattheisen, appreciativeessay on the lateVictorian English novelist George Gissing (1857-1903). http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/gissing/letters.html

George Gissing's Letters: A Review Peter Morton , Flinders University of South Australia The Collected Letters of George Gissing . Ed. Paul F. Mattheisen, Arthur C. Young, and Pierre Coustillas. Volume one (1863-1880); Volume two (1881-1885). Athens, Ohio: Ohio University Press, 1990-1991. "Soup-stained copies borrowed from public lending libraries." Forty years ago, that was what George Orwell had to manage with when he was preparing his appreciative essay on the late-Victorian English novelist George Gissing (1857-1903). Some of his subject's best work, Orwell complained, was completely unprocurable. The position is very different today. All twenty-three of Gissing's novels are readily available with many of them in paperback, thanks to the surge in the reprinting of nineteenth-century texts which occurred in the 1970s. From this surge he benefited more than any other author except Thomas Hardy. Gissing's stocks have been rising steadily for a decade or more, and his canonical position as a novelist of the upper second rank seems to be assured now, as it certainly was not when Orwell wrote. There are two more reasons why the surviving biographical documents should interest us. One is the light they shed on Gissing's creative work, for disguised autobiography is close to the surface everywhere. V.S. Pritchett was surely right in saying that "one must look first and last at his personal life, for he was, excessively, a personal writer." The more we know of Gissing's life, one of the more bizarre lives in the annals of literature, the more we can appreciate the way in which experience was transformed into art in
