"Muslin" is a social novel that explores the lives of the middle class in late 19th-century Dublin. The title refers to a type of fabric commonly used in clothing during that period, and the novel delves into the social and cultural dynamics of the time. Moore's works often addressed issues such as class distinctions, the role of women in society, and the impact of economic and cultural changes.While Moore's novels might not be as widely read today as some other works from the same period, he made significant contributions to literature and influenced later writers. If you have an interest in 19th-century Irish literature and social realism, "Muslin" could be a novel worth exploring. It provides a snapshot of the social milieu and concerns of the time through the lens of fiction.
