Elizabeth and Ruth - Historical Novel Society Manchester, 1849: Elizabeth Gaskell, whose novel Mary Barton has brought her both praise and opprobrium, visits a sixteen-year-old Pasley – the only name she is known by – in prison. A talented seamst...

Whoa! First review of Elizabeth and Ruth by Livi Michael —

"Michael’s prose has a vividness one can smell and touch... This novel is both readable and not an ‘easy’ read, and I thoroughly recommend it." — Historical Novel Society

This makes me think of a great story by @writemeave.bsky.social and a wonderful novel by @livimichael.bsky.social both of which I highly recommend. Also stories by Christopher Burns and David Constantine.

Manchester, 1849. Elizabeth Gaskell visits a young girl in prison and begins a fight against the hypocrisy of the day.

Based on real letters between Gaskell & Dickens, Elizabeth and Ruth by Livi Michael is a fierce story of censorship and grit. Out Feb 9! 📖🔥 #BookSky
