It also acts as a clearing-house for information about Gissing studies. Those who would like to add to the site are invited to contact the administrator George Gissing 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, essays, and enough letters to fill several volumes. The details of his private life, which for much of his time was very unhappy, have fascinated generations of readers; it is covered here in a brief biographical sketch Though he came from a middle-class provincial background (his father was a chemist in Wakefield) and was originally destined for an academic career, Gissing's first novels, published in the 1880s, were grimly realistic studies of London slum life, which Gissing perforce knew at first hand: the best are The Unclassed

   http://rylibweb.man.ac.uk/data2/spcoll/gissing
   
   Extractions: 100 items. The Library has a complete collection of first editions of the novels of George Robert Gissing (1857-1903), who was educated at a Quaker boarding school in Alderley Edge, Cheshire, and at Owens College, Manchester. Following his expulsion from Owens for theft and a month spent in prison, in 1876 he travelled to America, wandering for a year, before returning to London in 1877. The collection includes the Viscount Esher copy of Workers in the Dawn (1880), and the Hugh Walpole copy of Born in Exile (1892), together with the 1924 Chicago edition of Sins of the Fathers . Also available is the 1912 edition of The Private Life of Henry Maitland by Morley Roberts, extensively annotated by Edward Clodd and Clement Shorter. In 2002 the Library acquired a copy of Letters to Edward Clodd , one of only 30 copies privately printed for T.J. Wise in 1914. This leaves the undated Letters to an Editor as the only important item listed by Collie which is not available here.

   Extractions: GISSING (GEORGE, 1857-1903, novelist ) and WELLS (HERBERT GEORGE, 1866-1946, novelist and science fiction writer ) CARBON TYPED MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT FOR THE AMERICAN EDITION OF GISSING'S NOVEL THE TOWN TRAVELLER , signed twice and initialled once by both Gissing and H.G. Wells with the word 'London' inserted by Gissing and the words 'In witness of this signature' added by Wells, and also signed twice by Frederick Stokes and once by Frederick Cane for the publisher Frederick A. Stokes Company, whereby Gissing assigns to Stokes the rights of printing and publishing the book in America and Canada for a 15% royalty with an advance of £100, 2 pages, folio, three small paper losses and two small stains, clip hole at top lefthand corners, 22 February 1898 Material relating to the publication of Gissing's work is uncommon. The joint presence of Gissing and Wells on the document is most unusual. The Town Traveller , written in five weeks for serialisation specifically to relieve Gissing's financial hardship, was published in 1898 . He described it to Wells as 'my vulgar new book...It is a thin book; I couldn't help it', but Wells found it 'amusing'. It was, however, an immediate commercial success, selling 2,500 copies within two weeks and a further thousand by the end of a month. A six-penny edition of 20,000 copies was printed in 1902. In the present agreement Clause 8 ('That the said George Gissing agrees to give to the said Frederick A. Stokes Co. the first offer of his next new novel after the one above mentioned') has been deleted and has Wells's and Gissing's initials against it in the margin.
