Wholesale Ruth - Paperback

Report copyright infringement by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell (Author) Meet Ruth Hilton, a young seamstress who captures the heart of Henry Bellingham, a charming gentleman. But their whirlwind romance turns into a nightmare when he abandons her, leaving Ruth shattered and alone. On the brink of destruction, she's offered a second chance by a kind-hearted community who embrace her with love and respect, unaware of her dark secret - an illegitimate child. When Henry reappears, Ruth faces an impossible choice: conform to societal expectations or stand by her personal pride. In 'Ruth', Elizabeth Gaskell boldly challenges Victorian norms with a compassionate and unflinching portrayal of a 'fallen woman', sparking a powerful exploration of sin, redemption, and the true meaning of love.
