Answer:
The characters include the wicked old man, the nice old man, the nice old man's wife, and maybe the dog. The story takes place in a castle and on a farm, I think it takes place back when there were still castles with kings and queens. The stories point of view is third person omniscient because it uses words like he, she, and we don't know any of the character's thoughts.

Loathe or Loathing

Elizabeth Gaskell's Ruth is a social novel, also know as "problem novel" that deals with the old Victorian views about legitimacy and sinful behaviors. Gaskell portrays an outcast, "a fallen woman" in a very compassionate way.
It is demonstrated how the society would act towards a mother who conceived a child out of a marriage and how the main character, Ruth, is viewed as an evil and sinful person, despite the fact that she is actually good from what we can see. A proof of that would be the fact that she was willing to act as a nurse for typhus victims. She even treated Bellingham who was responsible for her ruin.
It is also interesting to note that she was not treated as a bad person or unwanted person by the townspeople who actually appreciated her nursing care. She also did not speak down to them. She recognized their needs and they were thankful for that.
