Hole In The Wall

Hole in the Wall

by Arthur Morrison

Set in the squalid and gritty East End of London during the late 19th century, "Hole in the Wall" delves into the lives of those who frequent and run a bustling pub. The story explores themes of poverty, crime, and the struggles of the working class in a society rife with social inequality. Morrison captures the atmosphere of the time through vivid descriptions of the pub, its patrons, and the shadowy characters who frequent its dimly lit corners. The novel serves as a social commentary on the harsh realities faced by many in Victorian England, providing a glimpse into the underbelly of London's urban landscape.
