In this, her bestselling second novel, Ethel Carnie Holdsworth
adapts a formula popularised by the Bronte sisters to write a tale
of dark and gothic romance set in the Lancashire hills. First
published anonymously in 1917 amid the tumult of World War I, the
novel quickly achieved strong sales in Britain and the US. By 1920
the author was working with Cecil Hepworth, a lauded pioneer of
silent cinema, on the film version. In her fascinating introduction
to the novel, Pamela Fox analyses Carnie Holdsworth's popular and
political writings and discusses how in Helen of Four Gates, Carnie
Holdsworth makes a powerful and important contribution both to
early cinema and to working-class writing as a whole.
