Eve Madeley, a highly educated but poor bookkeeper, arouses the interest of Maurice Hilliard, an architect and inventor, who tries to sweep her off her feet. Though he’s hardly better off financially then she, he persuades her to accompany him to Paris. Considered one of Gissing’s best, this 1895 novel explores money and marriage with unusual honesty and realism.
