The Works Of George Meredith

The Works of George Meredith by George Meredith collects the incisive, lyrical voice of one of Victorian literature’s most provocative novelists and essayists. Spanning celebrated novels, novellas, and shorter pieces, this anthology brings together landmark titles such as The Ordeal of Richard Feverel, Diana of the Crossways, Evan Harrington, Harry Richmond, The Amazing Marriage, and the fantastical Shaving of Shagpat. Rooted in the social and moral upheavals of late 19th-century England, Meredith’s literature probes marriage, individuality, social ambition, and the tensions between passion and convention. His prose fuses poetic sensibility with keen psychological observation and satirical wit, creating characters who feel vividly modern despite their Victorian settings. Themes of selfhood, gender politics, and cultural change recur throughout, while his stylistic daring presages the modern novel. Perfect for listeners who love classic literature, psychological realism, and richly wrought language, this audiobook provides a comprehensive immersion into Meredith’s range—from romantic entanglements and social comedy to allegory and philosophical reflection. Ideal for students, book-club members, and anyone eager to rediscover a major but sometimes overlooked Victorian master.
