About this audiobook
North and South by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell: "North and South" follows the journey of Margaret Hale, a young woman who relocates from rural southern England to the industrialized northern town of Milton. As Margaret grapples with the stark contrasts between the two regions and the social issues arising from the industrial revolution, she becomes entangled with the enigmatic mill owner, John Thornton. The novel delves into the complexities of class struggle, workers' rights, and the clash between traditional values and the modern world. Elizabeth Gaskell's insightful portrayal of industrial life and her nuanced exploration of romance and social issues make "North and South" a compelling and thought-provoking work of Victorian fiction.
