A new edition of Gaskell's witty and poignant comedy of country town life
Gaskell's best known work is set in a small rural town, inhabited largely by women.

But domestic peace is constantly threatened in the form of financial disaster, imagined burglaries, tragic accidents, and the reapparance of long-lost relatives.
