This novel explores themes of class, religion, love, and marriage, inspired by Gissing's early life. The protagonist, Godwin Peak, a top student at Whitelaw College, struggles with his Cockney uncle's arrival and the shame of being linked to 'trade,' leading him to abandon his promising future due to social aspirations and snobbery.
