Description

Penny-pinching bookseller Henry Earlforward harbours a desperate love for his neighbour and customer Violet.

After he succeeds in wooing and marrying her, their marriage begins to fall into ruins as Violet's spending clashes with Henry's miserly nature.

As Henry's health begins to decline, their loyal maid Elsie attempts to keep the household afloat, secretly waiting for her shellshocked love, Joe, to return for her.

Set in Clerkenwell, London, Arnold Bennett's 'Riceyman Steps' (1923) is a bittersweet tale that marked a significant departure from his other works.

Fans of heart wrenching love stories will enjoy this early 20th century classic that reads like a cross between Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol' and Jojo Moyes' 'Me Before You'.
