Gissing's Crown of Life is love as a test of nerve: Peak between two women, principle against heat, Victorian duty with a pulse. Not a simple triangle — a study of what a man calls honour when he wants two lives. Romance with a moral hangover. Mary or Beatrice, the schoolroom or the pulse. Gissing lets honour talk until it trips. A late-Victorian love story that knows the heart is not a scholarship. Piers Otway between two women and a principle that sweats. Read in English, unabridged.
