Om denne boken

"The Paying Guest" by George Gissing is a satirical novella published in 1895. When the middle-class Mumford family invites a lodger into their suburban London home to supplement their income, they expect a simple arrangement. Instead, Louise Derrick—poorly educated, bad-tempered, and pursued by two rival suitors—disrupts their peaceful existence. Written in an unusually comic tone for Gissing, this sharp social satire explores the tensions that arise when financial necessity collides with domestic tranquility, leading to jealousy, romantic chaos, and unexpected disaster.
