Lucy Clifford (née Lane), better known as Mrs. W.K. Clifford, was a British novelist and journalist. She married the mathematician and philosopher William Kingdon Clifford in 1875. After his death in 1879, she earned a prominent place in English literary life as a novelist, and later as a dramatist. She is perhaps most often remembered as the author of The Anyhow Stories, Moral and Otherwise (1882), a collection of stories written for her children. Clifford wrote cinematic adaptations of her short stories and plays.

Reviews

[Sophie · Rating 2 out of 5]

Sweet but rather forgettable romance. I suppose the author was trying to make a point about religious intolerance, which she mostly did, but I certainly would have enjoyed seeing somebody stand up to Hannah.
