North and South (Collector's Edition) (Laminated Hardback with Jacket)
Omtale
When Margaret Hale moves from her idyllic southern home to the smoky, bustling town of Milton, she's thrust into a world of gritty factories, class tension, and raw human struggle. In this industrial battleground, she clashes with John Thornton, a proud mill owner whose fierce drive masks a deeper complexity. As Margaret witnesses the harsh lives of Milton's workers and grapples with her growing fascination for Thornton, her convictions are tested in ways she never imagined. Caught between compassion and conflict, she must navigate a society on the brink of change-and her own heart in turmoil.
North and South offers a vivid portrait of England's industrial revolution, capturing the clash between traditional rural life and the harsh realities of urban industry. Elizabeth Gaskell dives into the conflicts between mill workers and owners, exploring class struggles, workers' rights, and social reform. Through Margaret Hale and John Thornton, Gaskell presents a nuanced view of both sides of the industrial divide, challenging readers to consider empathy and understanding in polarized times. The novel remains a powerful exploration of social justice, individual growth, and the complexities of change in a rapidly modernizing world.
