by George Gissing (Author)
The Paying Guest is a satirical novella by George Gissing, first published in 1895 by Cassell, as part of their Pocket Library series. It recounts the experiences of the Mumfords, a middle-class family who invite a "paying guest" into their home to supplement their income. Written in an unusually comic tone compared with Gissing's earlier works, [1] The Paying Guest was generally received well by critics. Gissing himself, however, was not satisfied with the work.
