London, England: Everyman's Library, 1925. Hardcover. Very Good / No Jacket. Nice red hard boards, gilt lettering and illustrations on spine, clean interior, no markings. A little wear on the corners. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY # 83. "CRANFORD is a novel in the form of 16 tales set in an English village inhabited mostly by single women and widows, whose remote, powerless lives are portrayed with a combination of satire, amusement, and sympathy. Elizabeth Gaskell's fourth novel reveals her to be a master storyteller with a lively eye for the eccentric, but it also has a decidedly feminist slant that was unusual in its time (1853) as well as an ironically distanced narrator who was perhaps even more unusual in Victorian fiction. "; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; 255 pages. Very Good with no dust jacket .
