''Kitty Lamere Or A Dark Page In London Life: A Tale'' is a novel written by Augustus Septimus Mayhew and first published in 1855. The story follows the life of Kitty Lamere, a young woman living in poverty in London during the mid-19th century. Kitty is forced to turn to prostitution in order to survive, and the novel explores the harsh realities of her life and the lives of those around her. Throughout the book, Mayhew provides vivid descriptions of the squalor and desperation of London’s slums, as well as the dangers and temptations that face those living in poverty. The novel also delves into the social and economic issues of the time, including the exploitation of women and the struggles of the working class. Despite its dark subject matter, ''Kitty Lamere'' ultimately offers a message of hope and redemption. As Kitty struggles to break free from her circumstances, she finds support and friendship in unexpected places, and ultimately learns to value herself and her own worth. Overall, ''Kitty Lamere Or A Dark Page In London Life: A Tale'' is a powerful and moving work of fiction that provides a glimpse into the harsh realities of life for those living in poverty in 19th century London.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
