Cranford

Elizabeth Gaskell

Cranford — Mary Smith narrates connected episodes from a small English town whose social life is shaped by independent women, among them the sisters Deborah and Matty Jenkyns. Visits, letters, rules of gentility, financial troubles, and changes arriving from the wider world let Elizabeth Gaskell blend gentle comedy with affection and insight into class, friendship, and resilience.
