In George Gissing's novel 'Born in Exile', he delves into the struggles of the lower middle class in Victorian England, shedding light on the issues of social mobility and class disparities. Written in a realistic and introspective style, Gissing brings to life the character of the protagonist, Godwin Peak, as he navigates the challenges of being born into a disadvantaged social position. The novel captures the essence of the late 19th century British society, providing a poignant commentary on the limitations and opportunities faced by those seeking to rise above their circumstances. George Gissing, known for his keen observations of society and introspective character studies, drew inspiration from his own experiences of poverty and social isolation. His personal struggles likely influenced the themes and characters present in 'Born in Exile', adding a layer of authenticity to the narrative. Gissing's background as a self-educated writer further informs the depth and complexity of the novel, showcasing his mastery of literary craft. I highly recommend 'Born in Exile' to readers interested in Victorian literature, social commentary, and character-driven narratives. Gissing's insightful exploration of class dynamics and individual aspiration makes this novel a powerful and thought-provoking read for anyone seeking to understand the challenges of social mobility in the 19th century.
