Krátky popis
The story is about the literary world of late-Victorian London that
Gissing inhabited, and its title, New Grub Street, alludes to the
London street, Grub Street, which in the 18th century became
synonymous with the "hack writing" that pervades Gissing's novel;
Grub Street itself was no longer extant when Gissing was writing.
The novel contrasts Edwin Reardon, a congenitally uncommercial but
talented writer, against Jasper Milvain, a selfish and unscrupulous
hack who rejects artistic endeavour for material gain. Milvain's
trite, manipulative work ascends while Reardon's work--and his
life--spiral downward.The novel suggests that the literary world
rewards materialistic self-promotion more than serious artistic
sensibility. Gissing's biography--a respected writer who struggled
for a long time to obtain commercial success--strongly suggests the
novel is autobiographical, the author's stand-in being (of course)
Reardon.
