Arnold Bennett (1867-1931) was a British writer. He went to work for his father but was unhappy working for his father and earning very little money. The theme of parental miserliness occurs in his works. At 21 he went to London to clerk for a solicitor. He then began working for a magazine called Women. When he noticed the poor material being submitted he began writing a serial for the periodical. First published in 1910. Edwin Clayhanger is the central figure in this portrayal of Victorian lower-middle-class society. As a shy young man, Edwin is bullied by his father, Darius, but he succeeds in developing his interests in spite of a restrictive environment. One of Edwin’s interests is Hilda Lessways, a young woman from Staffordshire. Hilda proves to be independent and enigmatic, while Edwin proves that there are many ways to view love.

  • The Ghost
    Arnold Bennett
    A ghost story that was a slow build but had all the right elements. This book was written in the very early 20th century, and it was nice to step back in history. The development between Carl and Rosa was captivating and the final reveal as to the motives of the ghost was satisfying. This was a ghost story with a ghost and not a psychological ghost story.
