Wives and Daugthers

Widower Mr. Gibson decides to remarry for the sake of his daughter, Molly-but his new wife proves to be insincere and selfish. Molly often stays with the Hamleys of Hamley Hall, spending time with their two sons, Osborne and Roger. "Wives and Daughters" - which follows Molly as she grows into a young woman and falls in love - is Elizabeth Gaskell's final novel, and her masterpiece.
