A los diecisiete años, Paul Manning, de Birmingham, llega a la pequeña población de Eltham como ayudante del ingeniero del ferrocarril. No muy lejos, en una granja, viven unos parientes de su madre: el pastor de la Iglesia Independiente Holman, su mujer y su hija, a los que a regañadientes se ve obligado a visitar. Sin embargo, la vida pausada que allí descubre, regida como en las Geórgicas de Virgilio por el calendario de las labores del campo, y el conocimiento de su prima Phillis.

About the Author

Tremendously popular in her lifetime, the books of the English author Elizabeth Gaskell (1810-1865) have often been overshadowed by her contemporaries the Brontës and George Eliot. Yet the reputation of her long-neglected masterpiece Wives and Daughters continues to grow. Gaskell wrote six novels in all — of which North and South and Cranford remain two of the best known — as well as numerous short stories, novellas, and a biography of her great friend Charlotte Brontё.
