Beschreibung

This book's importance to us, as to the generation of 1831, when Cranford was published, and 1906, when it was first included in Everyman's Library, is the art, the taste, and the loving charity which Mrs. Gaskell here united. She was always a sincere and humane novelist; in Cranford, by writing with mature comprehension of what she had originally seen with a child's clear eyes and retentive memory, she produced something unique. Because it is unique, it is again reprinted.

Hübsches Buch

Ein wenig in Richtung Jane Austen, interessantes und witziges Gesellschaftsporträt des Englands des 19. Jahrhunderts

A charming slice-of-life novel full of amusing anecdotes but also sad undertones. There are contunious arcs and the book doesn't feel episodic, but there isn't really a plot either. It's a peak into the life of some spinsters and how their quirks and their dominance of this village shape it. The ladies are both likable and believable and I enjoyed my time with them.
