George Egerton Books

George Egerton emerged as a pivotal "New Woman" writer and feminist author of the fin de siècle. Her stylistic innovations and radical subject matter cemented her place among the era's most influential literary voices. Egerton's experimental approach to form and content foreshadowed the modernist techniques of writers like James Joyce and D. H. Lawrence. Her work, which also influenced Thomas Hardy, is notably credited with the first mention of Friedrich Nietzsche in English literature.
