Beschreibung
In the small village of Cranford, some twenty miles from the bustling industrial city of Drumble, the lives of the town's eccentric, endearing characters are revealed in a tapestry of intimate vignettes that reveal the social intricacies of nineteenth-century English society. With humor, heart, and wit, Elizabeth Gaskell imagines a world populated by a loyal circle of female friends whose idiosyncrasies and camaraderie form the fabric of this captivating narrative. As the industrial revolution impacts the town and societal norms evolve, Cranford faces both external and internal changes. The gentle Miss Matty Jenkyns and her fellow Cranfordians navigate the challenges of their shifting landscape with grace and tenacity, providing a heartwarming and insightful glimpse into the lives of ordinary people in an extraordinary setting. The saga of their tribulations and joys is a must-read for all fans of the work of Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters. Cranford is not just the story of a place; it's a celebration of community and the enduring power of human connections.
This Warbler Classics edition includes an essay about the subtly subversive nature of Cranford-a pioneering novel in its time-and a detailed biographical timeline.
