The Novels of Elizabeth Gaskell, Volume Two, Including Sylvia's Lovers and Wives and Daughters


Book Description

Elizabeth Gaskell (1810 - 1865), was a Victorian British writer. Her novels are fascinating to historians because they offer detailed portraits of people from every social class and she uses colloquialisms of the period. Of course, her books are also loved by a far wider audience for their moving stories, powerful relationships, social concern and the exploration of male authority. Her six novels are contained within two volumes: In Volume One: Mary Barton, Cranford, Ruth and North and South In Volume Two: Sylvia's Lovers and Wives and Daughters

Sylvia's Lovers, Vol. 2 (Esprios Classics)


Book Description

Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell née Stevenson (1810-1865), often referred to simply as Mrs. Gaskell, was an English novelist and short story writer during the Victorian era. She is perhaps best known for her biography of Charlotte Brontë. Her novels offer a detailed portrait of the lives of many strata of society, including the very poor, and as such are of interest to social historians as well as lovers of literature. She married William Gaskell, the minister at Cross Street Unitarian Chapel in Manchester. They settled in Manchester, where the industrial surroundings would offer inspiration for her novels. Her first novel, Mary Barton: A Tale of Manchester Life, was published anonymously in 1848. The best known of her remaining novels are Cranford (1853), North and South (1855), and Wives and Daughters (1866).




Mary Barton


Book Description

Mary Barton Volume 2 By Elizabeth Gaskell Set in Manchester in the 1840s, Mary Barton depicts the effects of economic and physical hardship upon the city's working-class community. Paralleling the novel's treatment of the relationship between masters and men, the suffering of the poor, and the workmen's angry response, is the story of Mary herself-a factory-worker's daughter who attracts the attentions of the mill-owner's son, who becomes caught up in the violence of class conflict when a brutal murder forces her to confront her true feelings and allegiances.
