An exploration of the class struggle in nineteenth century London where a potential inheritance turns family and friends into desperate foes eager to escape their circumstance. A compelling story about greed, deception and the innate need to survive. Michael Snowdon lives like a pauper despite inheriting a massive fortune. He plans to leave his money to Jane, his neglected granddaughter, in hopes that she will spend it on charitable causes. Yet, Michaels estranged son Jonathan wants to acquire the funds for himself. He tries to create a wedge between his father and Jane, making it easier for him to make a claim. The story highlights the horrors of poverty and the extremes people are willing to go to escape it. The Nether World is a detailed and complex story about societys most vulnerable people. George Gissing delivers a brutally honest picture of class disparity in Victorian era England. It is a time and a place fueled by both desperation and hope. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Nether World is both modern and readable.
