George Meredith was one of the most admired and demanding Victorian novelists and poets — a writer praised by Henry James and Thomas Hardy, and influential on a generation of writers who followed him. This collection gathers his shorter works: poetry, shorter fiction, and prose pieces that complement the major novels such as The Egoist and The Ordeal of Richard Feverel.
Meredith’s prose is notable for its density, wit, and psychological penetration. Download this free EPUB from Better Gutenberg to explore the shorter writings of a Victorian master who deserves wider readership today.
