THE NETHER WORLD.
'Terrible in its earnestness, in its "untouched" photography of the desperate struggles and bitter misery of the London poor; never was word-painting more thoroughly and obviously true.'—World.
'Mr. Gissing is one of the few persons who can handle pitch without being defiled by it. While he runs Zola close as a realist, his thoughts and language are as pure as those of Miss Yonge herself.'—Standard.
'A powerful and most interesting novel.'—Manchester Guardian.
