The life of Edmund Gosse was one of continuous contradiction. He was a precocious only child brought up by a father whose thinking was dominated by the Bible and the "Actinologica Britannica". This book presents a picture of Edmund Gosse without ignoring his many contradictions, showing how they reflect the complexity of his singular genius.
