The Great Taboo

1. English learners can use it as extensive reading, reading one chapter a day and noting new words and period expressions.
2. Literary researchers can read it alongside Grant Allen's other works and the context of late Victorian popular fiction.
3. General readers can first learn common themes of late-19th-century British fiction to reduce the sense of historical distance before entering the text.
4. Using the multiple eBook formats offered by Project Gutenberg is recommended for reading on phones or e-readers anytime.

Project Gutenberg is a digital publishing project focused on public-domain ebooks. Its publishing direction centers on classic literary works whose copyright has expired, covering genres such as poetry, drama, fiction, and epic. Representative books include Lyrical Ballads by Wordsworth and Coleridge, Proust's Du côté de chez Swann, Shakespeare's Macbeth and The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Homer's The Iliad, Dante's La Divina Comèdia: Purgatòri, Cervantes's The History of Don Quixote, Volume 2, and Grahame's The Wind in the Willows. Its author resources consist mainly of classic Western writers such as Wordsworth, Proust, Shakespeare, Homer, Dante, Cervantes, Grahame, and Tolstoy. Its publishing feature is the provision of freely accessible ebooks in EPUB and Kindle formats; it is not a traditional publisher, and publicly available information is limited.
