Part of Penguins beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. Gaskells best known work is set in a small rural town, inhabited largely by women. This is a community that runs on cooperation and gossip, at the very heart of which are the daughters of the former rector: Miss Deborah Jenkyns and her sister Miss Matty. But domestic peace is constantly threatened in the form of financial disaster, imagined burglaries, tragic accidents, and the reapparance of long-lost relatives. About the Author Patricia Ingham is Senior Research Fellow and Reader at St Annes College, Oxford. She has written on the Victorian novel and on Hardy in particular. she is the General Editor of all Hardys fiction in the Penguin Classics and has edited Gaskells North and South for the series.
