About this issue

This issue contains a substantial critical essay, "After Ten Years," commemorating novelist Mrs. Henry Wood a decade after her death. The anonymous author examines Wood's enduring literary reputation and influence, arguing that her novels deserve admiration for their moral purpose and realistic portrayal of English life, particularly domestic dramas. The essay details Wood's connection to Worcester—her childhood home beneath the cathedral—and traces how this geography permeates her fiction, notably East Lynne (which sold nearly half a million copies), Mrs. Halliburton's Troubles, and the Johnny Ludlow series. The author praises her character work, her unfailing memory, and her ability to infuse sensational plots with ethical lessons. The piece includes Wood's personal recollections, describing her as a "still, sweet presence" of quiet sympathy and productivity despite chronic illness. Accompanying illustrations depict Worcester Cathedral and local landmarks that inspired her work.
