Through Felix’s experiences, Gissing delves into themes of social injustice, the complexities of working-class life, and the constraints imposed by a rigid class system.The narrative also features a supporting cast, including his love interest, who embodies the tensions between personal aspirations and societal expectations. Gissing's incisive prose captures the zeitgeist of the era, illuminating the frustrations and hopes of those striving for change.
