Ethel Carnie (1886-1962) was a working-class writer and socialist activist who campaigned for social and economic justice and the rights of working-class men and women.
She worked in the Lancashire cotton mills from the age of eleven until her early twenties.
Down Poverty Street was serialised in 1921, and reflects the difficulties surrounding the out-of-work and sick in working class environments of the time.
