Slammerkin es una novela histórica de Emma Donoghue, autora del éxito internacional 'Room'. Ambientada en el siglo XVIII, la historia sigue a Mary Saunders, una joven de orígenes humildes en el Londres de Hogarth, cuya fascinación por las telas finas y los adornos la lleva por un camino de autodescubrimiento y supervivencia. A través de sus experiencias, la novela explora temas de libertad, clase social y la condición de la mujer en una sociedad en transición hacia la industrialización.
