Working-class London in the 19th & 20th centuries is popularly imagined as either a melodramatic place of destruction, drunkenness & disease, or a romantic cliché of extended supportive families, jellied eels & sing songs round the piano. Hilda Keane rejects both caricatures in her exploration of the lives of her predecessors.
