Ruth

About this item

Review "A generally good teaching edition at a reasonable price."--Christopher C. Dahl, University of Michigan, Dearborn "Essential that this remain in print for Victorian culture studies."--Linda Shires, Syracuse University "I'm happy that you have made Ruth affordable for classroom use. Ruth illuminates many of the conflicts over 'the fallen woman' as Christian martyr or feminist hero seen in more famous Victorian novels such as Tess and The Scarlet Letter . Your edition is well-edited and readably printed."--Dr. Jeanette Shumaker, San Diego State University (Imperial Valley Branch) "OUP is the only publisher of this in paperback. It's a significant book for any Victorian literature course and particularly for one on Victorian women." --Eleanor McNees, University of Denver From the Publisher
