Set in a provincial town in the early 19th century, 'Wives and Daughters', Elizabeth Gaskell's last novel, is a subtle representation of historical change explored in human terms.
Elizabeth Gaskell (1810-65) moved from the London of her childhood to Knutsford and later Manchester, and her experience of the differences between North and South deeply informed her writing. Writer of six novels, numerous shorter works and the biography of her great friend Charlotte Brontë, Gaskell was at first published anonymously but later in her own name. Much of her work was serialised in Charles Dickens's widely-read literary weekly, Household Words.
Gaskell's other novels Mary Barton, Cranford and North and South are also published in the Penguin English Library.
