North and South
اس ای بک کے بارے میں
For Margaret, choosing sides is easy; she gains many friends among the poor and clashes with the nouveau riche textile manufacturer John Thornton, who despises his workers. However, the profound societal and economic divisions cannot prevent the two from being drawn to each other. As Victorian England undergoes irreversible change, a love story with obstacles unfolds.
Drawing inspiration from the industrial city of Manchester, Elizabeth Gaskell constructs a tough and ruthless world, yet one filled with hope. The social changes taking root also demonstrate that greater human understanding is possible. North and South is a classic of socially engaged literature, akin to Dickens or Balzac, yet with its own unique insight into human nature.
