Notes:
HHR's first novel, Maurice Guest, had proved too big and too controversial to be published in its intended form, and her publisher Heinemann insisted on her cutting 20,000 words and make other changes. The Academy edition restores the original text and presents the complete novel as HHR had wished to have it published. Fully annotated, it includes the history of its writing, publication and reception in Europe, America and Australia, and an account of the novel's translation into German and French. An Appendix illustrates the history of the text when in 1929 HHR was again pressured into rewriting some passages. A map of Leipzig illustrates the topographical details of the novel.
