"Ruth" by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell tells the poignant story of a young woman who struggles with her tragic circumstances. Orphaned and left vulnerable, Ruth begins her journey in a textile mill but soon faces societal scrutiny after becoming the victim of seduction by a wealthy man. As she seeks redemption, she is taken in by a compassionate family that helps her find her place in a judgmental society. Gaskell explores themes of morality, the complexities of love, and the harsh realities faced by women in the 19th century, ultimately portraying Ruth's journey toward self-discovery and redemption.
