Musaicum Books, 2017

Arthur Morrison's 'The East End Trilogy' is a collection of three vivid and gritty tales set in the poverty-stricken and crime-ridden East End of London during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 'Tales of Mean Streets', Morrison paints a vivid picture of the struggles and hardships faced by the working-class residents, capturing the brutal reality of everyday life in the slums. 'A Child of the Jago' delves deeper into the life of a young boy growing up in the notorious Jago district, exposing the harsh truths of poverty, crime, and despair. 'To London Town' provides a broader view of the city, exploring themes of social inequality and the clash between wealth and poverty. Morrison's writing style is marked by its attention to detail, atmospheric descriptions, and raw realism, offering a glimpse into a forgotten world of London's past. Arthur Morrison, a journalist and writer with a keen interest in social issues, drew inspiration from his own observations and experiences in the East End to create these powerful narratives. Highly recommended for readers interested in exploring the dark underbelly of Victorian London and the human condition amidst adversity.
