Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cranford is one of the better-known novels of the 19th century English writer Elizabeth Gaskell, whose writings can be seen as critiques of Victorian era attitudes, particularly those toward women, with complex narratives and dynamic women characters. It was first published, irregularly, in eight instalments, between December 1851 and May 1853, in the magazine Household Words, which was edited by Charles Dickens. It was then published, with minor revision, in book form in 1853. In the years following Elizabeth Gaskell's death the novel became immensely popular.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cranford and Other Cales: And Other Tales Among all Mrs. Gaskell's works, "Cranford," I take it, remains to this day the most general favourite. The popular voice, although, except in a proverbial way, it need not in literary any more than in other matters be regarded as infallible, in the present instance expresses an opinion which for half a century has prevailed in "two worlds." At home, the wide favour enjoyed by this brief series of sketches, strung together with easy grace like a wreath of flowers and ivy-leaves, has been shown by an almost continuous succession of editions. Some of these have been provided with introductions possessing an interest of their own - above all, that prefaced by Mrs. Thackeray-Ritchie's most charming tribute to a writer whose genius is in so many respects sympathetic to that of the authoress of "Elizabeth." Another well-written introduction is Dr. Brooke Herford's. His edition is illustrated, but not very happily; nor are Mr. T. H. Robinson's pictures uniformly successful, though he must be thanked for his portraits of Martha, staring at the Indian, and of Lady Glenmire, issuing forth, demurely happy, from church. Everybody knows Mr. Hugh Thomson's coloured illustrations, and the artistic designs of Mr. Brock. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Dark Night s Work Esprios Classics written by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell and published by Blurb. This book was released on 2020-02-07 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Dark Night's Work is an 1863 novel by Elizabeth Gaskell. It was first published serially in Charles Dickens's magazine All the Year Round. The word "dark" was added to the original title by Dickens against Gaskell's wishes. Dickens felt that the altered title would be more striking. The story centers on a country lawyer, Edward Wilkins, and his daughter Ellinor. Edward has an artistic and literary personality, unsuited to his social position as the son of a successful lawyer who takes over his father's practice in the provincial town of Hamley. His legal representation of the local gentry and nobility leads him to try fitting into their social circles, only to be mocked and treated with derision.
