NORTH AND SOUTH

Gaskell, Elizabeth

Εκδότης Collector's Library , ISBN 9781509827947

Forced to move from the rural tranquillity of southern England to the turbulent northern mill town of Milton, Margaret Hale takes an instant dislike to the dirt and noise that seems to characterize her new home and its inhabitants - even the handsome and charismatic cotton mill owner, John Thornton. But as she begins to settle in, and to understand the nature of the surrounding poverty and injustice, events conspire to throw her and Thornton together. Amidst the chaos of industrial unrest, they must learn to overcome the prejudices of class and circumstance and admit their feelings for one another.

One of literature's greatest romances, North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell is both an incisive social commentary and an electric portrayal of all-conquering love.

Συγγραφέας

Η κυρία Γκάσκελ (Elizabeth Gaskell), πατρικό Stevenson) γεννήθηκε το 1810 στο Τσέλσι του Λονδίνου. Το 1832 παντρεύτηκε τον William Gaskell, ιερέα, ο οποίος ήταν επίσης λογοτέχνης. Το 1848 εξέδωσε ανώνυμα το πρώτο της μυθιστόρημα με τίτλο Mary Barton. Άλλα έργα της είναι το "Cranford" (1853) και το "North and South" (1854). Έγινε κυρίως γνωστή για τις ιστορίες φαντασμάτων που έγραφε όταν ο φίλος της Κάρολος Ντίκενς τις δημοσίευσε στο περιοδικό του "Household Words". Πέθανε το 1865 στο Χόλιμπουρν.
