Adventures of Harry Richmond - Complete

By British novelist George Meredith, The Adventures of Harry Richmond (1870–1871) is a romantic novel that alternates between picaresque and melodramatic sections. Meredith intended for the book to be a widespread hit, but the list of reprints indicates that only happened during Meredith's late Victorian and early Edwardian prime when some readers found his highly-wrought language to be a hindrance. The Adventures of Harry Richmond was first started by Meredith in 1863, and the following year he informed his friend Augustus Jessopp that he was working on a book titled The Adventure of Richmond Roy and his Companion, Contrivance Jack: Being the Biography of Two Rising Persons.
