Omschrijving

Mary Barton, And Other Tales is a collection of short stories written by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell and originally published in 1890. The book is named after its first story, Mary Barton, which tells the story of a young woman living in Manchester during the industrial revolution. The story explores themes of class conflict, social injustice, and the struggles of the working class. The other tales in the collection also deal with similar themes, such as poverty, inequality, and the harsh realities of life for those living in Victorian England. Some of the stories focus on the lives of women and their struggles to find their place in society, while others explore the lives of the poor and the working class. Gaskell was known for her realistic and compassionate portrayals of working-class life, and this book is no exception. Her writing is both insightful and empathetic, offering a window into the lives of those who were often marginalized and ignored in Victorian society. Overall, Mary Barton, And Other Tales is a powerful collection of stories that offer a glimpse into the struggles and hardships of life in Victorian England. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and literature of the period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
