About the author

Born in Portsmouth on February 12, 1828, George Meredith became one of the notable English novelists and poets of the Victorian period. He began with poetry, influenced in part by John Keats, and gradually built his reputation as a novelist whose writing was admired for its intelligence, style, and close study of character.

His best-known novels include The Ordeal of Richard Feverel, Evan Harrington, The Egoist, and Diana of the Crossways. Readers and critics have long noted his brilliant dialogue, his wit, and the way his fiction explores motives, pride, love, and self-deception.

Meredith spent much of his later life at Box Hill in Surrey and continued writing into old age. He died there on May 18, 1909, leaving behind a body of work that helped shape the later Victorian novel and still attracts readers who enjoy ambitious, thoughtful fiction.
