A hook: A quiet diary, a century of memory, and a life laid bare in the voice of a man at fifty. This Victorian era novella in diary form fiction unfolds with intimate immediacy as a man in late nineteenth-century London examines his own shifting identity through aging contemplation and midlife reflection.

Produktbeschreibung
A hook: A quiet diary, a century of memory, and a life laid bare in the voice of a man at fifty. This Victorian era novella in diary form fiction unfolds with intimate immediacy as a man in late nineteenth-century London examines his own shifting identity through aging contemplation and midlife reflection. The epistolary diary fiction invites readers into a precise, recognisable world of late Victorian society, where memory and selfhood collide with the social currents of the day. The result is both a moving character study and a lucid meditation on what we owe to our past as we navigate the present. The book offers value for both casual readers and classical-literature collectors: a compact, richly observed form that rewards careful reading and generous discussion. Its appeal lies in its humane precision, its quiet courage, and its capacity to illuminate the everyday through a realist sensibility comparable to great prose of the period. It serves as an accessible academic study resource, a fertile basis for book club discussion, and a thoughtful classroom reading assignment. A note on literary or historical significance underlines its standing in the realist tradition and its portrait of Victorian London in the late nineteenth century. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This edition makes the work exquisitely available to new audiences while honouring its lasting resonance. Keywords weave naturally through the narrative's texture.
