'Nobody has ever known as much about Gissing as Pierre Coustillas, and it is quite possible that no one ever will. His authority in the area seems unassailable. Clearly and unpretentiously written, as devoid of error as any sublunary endeavor, this biography is the crowning achievement of a distinguished career.' English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920 'With the publication of the third and final volume of Gissing's biography Professor Coustillas has completed the monumental task to which he devoted his entire career over the course of five decades.' The Gissing Journal 'This outstanding literary biography deserves the accolade Coustillas gives his subject: it is a heroic achievement. Highly Recommended.' CHOICE
