- Description
For educators looking to engage learners on the experiences of 19th-century working-class people in London, Mary Barton offers a robust story with plenty of drama, social commentary, and a focus on human connections. The tone of this novel is accessible, though the length and use of third-person omniscient narrative voice make it suitable for estabished or highly interested readers. This book could easily be used as a novel study for English language arts lessons. Additionally, excerpts could be used in social studies classes to discuss social change during the Industrial Revolution and the impact of ideology. While the story is fictional, it does focus heavily on the experience of women, a perspective that is underrepresented in many other works.
