Morning Post: Saturday 17th September 1892

Jenny’s Case: By Ellen F. Pinsent, 2 vols. London: Swan Sonnenschein and Co.: A sad story of village life is well told by the author in “Jenny’s Case.” It consists of a plain and unvarnished record of the temptations and fall of a girl in a manner foredoomed to misfortune. Miss Pinsent has succeeded in avoiding both the unreal conventionalism which would have been unnatural in treating her theme, and the coarseness into which a write of less tact might easily have been betrayed. In fact, the tale is a good example of the “ars eclave artem”, while it shows a thorough knowledge of the ways and manners of the rural classes.
