A signed limited edition of George Moore's popular Victorian socially illuminating novel. Limited signed edition of Esther Waters by George Moore in original publisher's paper-backed cloth boards.Limited to 750 copies, this is number 624. Signed by the author to the limitation page.Esther Waters is set in late nineteenth century England and follows a young working class woman. She is exploited by her employee while working as a maid and falls pregnant. This novel tells the typical 'fallen women' narrative of the Victorian era.George Moore was an Irish naturalistic writer, whose social commentary through fiction is clear in this work. In the original publisher's paper-backed cloth boards. Externally, very smart. There is some bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. The spine is slightly faded and discoloured. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are very bright and clean. Very Good Indeed.
