Beskrivelse

“Esther Waters is a novel by George Moore first published in 1894.Set in England from the early 1870s onward, the novel is about a young, pious woman from a poor working-class family who, while working as a kitchen maid, is seduced by another employee, becomes pregnant, is deserted by her lover, and against all odds decides to raise her child as a single mother. Esther Waters is one of a group of Victorian novels that depict the life of a “”fallen woman””.Written in a Zola-like naturalistic style, the novel stands out among Moore’s publications as the book whose immediate success, including Gladstone’s approval of the novel in the Westminster Gazette, brought him financial security.
