Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These stories are a brilliant evocatin of a narrow, close-knit community—that of the streets of London's East End in the 1890s. Having lived and worked there, he knew that his East Enders were not a race apart, but ordinary men and women, scraping by perhaps, but neither criminals nor paupers. He chronicled their adventures and misadventures, their wooings and their funerals, with sympathy, humor and a sense of both the tragedies and comedies to be found in the "mean streets, " from Lizerunt's disastrous marriage to Scuddy Lond's plausible but imperfect conversion and "Squire" Napper's quickly dispersed fortune.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Morrison's characters live and die around the East End of the late Victorian period, many of these people's lives and problems are still recognizable and being experienced by poor people in today's Britain. These are not stories of an idealised working class but people whose grinding poverty and lack of prospects result in hopeless, disappointed lives. Be it the young woman who drifts into an abusive relationship with a violent man, the young starving man trying to get a break by boxing, the mental breakdown of a man abandoned with young children or the mother and daughter who die living a life of genteel starvation, we can recognise that their tragedies result from the poverty of their lives. Even those who get a break by coming into money find themselves failing - the 'spend, spend, spend' mentality, the failed business or, in a weirdly relevant story for modern times, the amateur buy to let landlord who is ruined by lack of understanding of what he is doing, bad tenants and finally a 'friend' of the mortgage lender ready to buy back cheaply what has cost the old man his money and health. There are some clever observations of working class life including a Friday night on the bus across the river to get a late drink or a night out at the fair. Some of the characters are unpleasant and utterly without shame. Morrison seems to have no time for those ideological or religious movements operating in the East End at the time. The Church is a ridiculous place that redeems no one, the Anarchist is revealed by the proletariat to be cowardly and lacking in all conviction, the Trade Unionist is a vile bully setting thugs on an old man rendering him unable to work and sent to the workhouse while sub-letting the old man's property and thundering on soap boxes against evil landlords.

This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was considered an intrepid thing for Walter Besant to do when, twelve or thirteen years ago, he invaded the great East End of London and drew upon its unknown wealth of varied material to people that most charming novel, "All Sorts and Conditions of Men." Until then the West End knew little of its contiguous neighbor in the East. Dickens's kaleidoscopic views of low life in the South of London were manifestly caricatures of the slum specimens of human nature which he purposely sought and often distorted to suit his bizarre humor. Mr. Besant may be fairly considered as the pioneer of those who have since descended to the great unchartered region of East London, about which, so far as our knowledge of the existing conditions of human life in that community are concerned, we remained until, as it were yesterday, almost as ignorant as of the undiscovered territories in Central Africa.

This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 1630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "THE EAST END TRILOGY: Tales of Mean Streets, A Child of the Jago & To London Town” is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Arthur Morrison (1863-1945) was an English writer and journalist known for his detective stories, featuring the detective Martin Hewitt, low-key, realistic, lower class answer to Sherlock Holmes. Martin Hewitt stories are similar in style to those of Conan Doyle, cleverly plotted and very amusing, while the character himself is a bit less arrogant and a bit more charming than Holmes. Morrison is also known for his realistic novels and stories about working-class life in London's East End. His best known work of fiction is his novel A Child of the Jago, a tale that recounts the brief life of a child growing up in the "Old Jago", a slum located between Shoreditch High Street and Bethnal Green Road in the East End of London.
