More about the book

Set in a 19th-century English village, the story revolves around the life of Molly Gibson, the daughter of a country doctor. As she navigates the complexities of family dynamics, societal expectations, and romantic entanglements, themes of love, class, and the role of women emerge. The narrative explores Molly's relationships, particularly with her father and her stepmother, while also delving into the lives of those around her. Gaskell's rich character development and social commentary provide a vivid portrayal of the era.
