Cranford

Cranford is the masterpiece of the giant writer of 19th century English literature, Elizabeth Gaskell, which looks at the English countryside through friendships between women.

In Cranford, Gaskell presents minimalist portraits of country life through the adventures of two single, middle-aged women, Miss Deborah and Miss Matty. Cranford, the setting of friendships and habits between women, is a satirical narrative about manners and tradition, as well as a human scene where irony and humor, death and tragedy are simultaneously in effect. Reflecting Elizabeth Gaskell's sharp observation power on both family life and social life, Cranford is a masterpiece by a first-class writer who, after Jane Austen, continued to look at 19th Century British society from the perspective of women.

"My dear Scheherazade, I am sure that your talent for telling stories will not fade overnight, but will at least last a thousand and one nights."
