Beschreibung
Forced to move from the rural tranquillity of southern England to the turbulent northern mill town of Milton, Margaret Hale immediately dislikes the dirt and noise that characterize her new home and its inhabitants, including the handsome and charismatic cotton mill owner John Thornton. As she begins to settle in and understand the poverty and injustice around her, events bring her and Thornton together. Amid industrial unrest, they must overcome the prejudices of class and circumstance and admit their feelings for one another. One of literature’s great romances, Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South is both incisive social commentary and an electric portrayal of all-conquering love. This Macmillan Collector’s Library edition includes an afterword by Kathryn White and is part of a series of beautiful gift editions of much-loved classic titles.
