He wins many academic prizes and his future seems promising. Then his Cockney uncle arrives intending to open an eating-house adjacent to the college. Godwin is mortified of being associated with 'trade' and leaves the college rather than face the scorn he expects to receive from his upper-class fellow students.This is indicative of his social aspirations (upwards) and snobbery (downwards).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Gissing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1717020399\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781717020390\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.91d","brand":"George Gissing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125205496063,"sku":"9781717020390","price":18.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_89cfb0c6-e019-46b9-bb8e-0519c10d6f1b.jpg?v=1687441266","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/born-in-exile-george-gissing-9781717020390","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
