About this ebook
A love story, The Crown of Life was inspired by writer George Gissing’s feelings for the young author Gabrielle Marie Edith Fleury, whom he met in 1898 while he was estranged from his wife Edith. Rich in detail, the narrative ends on an optimistic note—namely that happiness is possible.
