31st May, 2021.
It’s officially the case: I’ve been reading … a book!
Well … there’s not much to do, at my place!
At any rate … ?
I’ve started reading Hallie Rubenhold’s The Five: her biography of the five acknowledged victims of the anonymous killer known as Jack the Ripper.
I’ve finished the section about his first victim, Mary Ann ‘Polly’ Nichols.
Polly ended up separating from her husband: losing her home in the process, and developing a drink problem, as a result.
It’s sad to read.
Especially when you realise so many lives are still like that, today …
