Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A tragic affair blooms between a working-class orphan and a wealthy rake in this classic novel of Victorian England.
Although Ruth Hilton is kind, life does not treat her kindly in return. An orphaned young seamstress, she works long hours at a sweatshop in a small English town. When she is sent to a fancy ball to repair the ladies' dresses, she catches the eye of a gentleman, Henry Bellingham.
Falling for Henry leads to the loss of her job and her home, and Ruth quickly finds herself raising a child alone. Overcome with grief and shame, she must now make her way in a world where society has turned its back on her and all she can rely on is hope.
A moving novel from the author of North and South and Mary Barton , Ruth offers a unique look at British life during the mid-nineteenth century.
