by George Moore (Author), Stephen Regan (Author)
Here is the only available paperback edition of George Moore's powerful novel, Esther Waters. Controversial and influential on its first appearance in 1894, the book opened up a new direction for the English realist tradition. Unflinching in its depiction of the dark and sordid side of Victorian culture, it remains one of the great novels of London life and labor in the 1890s. The novel depicts with extraordinary candor Esther's struggles against prejudice and injustice, and the growth of her character as she determines to protect her son. Her moving story is set against the backdrop of a world of horse racing, betting, and public houses, whose vivid depiction led James Joyce to call Esther Waters "the best novel of modern English life."
Stephen Regan is Professor of English at Durham University. He the editor of Irish Writing: An Anthology of Irish Literature in English 1789-1939. He is a Visiting Scholar in the Department of English at Harvard University (2011-12).
