Review # 1 was written on 2008-05-21 00:00:00 Patrick Lee Amazing story of a woman who transgresses the status quo to forge another path. Hannah Cullwick is my new shiny toy that I'm obessed with....however this book is badly written....long, blabbing sentences yet over simplified. This is strange enough to be fiction....but it's not.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-02-03 00:00:00 James Adams A very close look at a rather odd relationship that may or may not be telling us something about the Victorians in general. I found this convincing, a little moving, and not nearly as circular and repetitive as I had expected. Worth a look for the history, and certainly good for the narrative if you like this sort of slightly sordid relationship stuff.
