Likewise, don't forget about Mary Barton, Gaskell's first novel. It didn't make my list--not because it's not good, but because everything else I listed is so much better, imo.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-80129817142151449292008-12-03T17:02:00.000-07:002008-12-03T17:02:00.000-07:00I have a long-term project in which I will be read...I have a long-term project in which I will be reading all of Gaskell's novels... I wish I had seen your post earlier, though, because I recently loaned library copies of 'Cranford' and 'Wives and Daughters' - but no N&S. <BR/><BR/>After reading this post, I think I'll also be adding the novellas to my list. <I>The Grey Woman</I> sounds fascinating, as does <I>Lady Ludlow</I> :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-67827666018966277762008-12-03T14:51:00.000-07:002008-12-03T14:51:00.000-07:00Make sure you let me know what you end up reading,...Make sure you let me know what you end up reading, Becky.
