Ed Reardon's Week
Apparently, some of the characters in the BBC radio programme, Ed Reardon's Week are based on characters from this book. I used to think that programme was quite funny. Well, well, well, I may have to put this on the reading list. George Gissing himself seems to have led a shortish but interesting life.
