Руфь
Юная Руфь не была ни роковой красавицей, ни богачкой. Сирота, лишенная ласки и внимания, слишком наивная для этого мира интриг и обманов. Образец кротости и смирения, скромная и невинная Руфь привлекла богатого мистера Беллингема, подобно экзотической бабочке. Эдакая диковинка в душном обществе надменных аристократов. Но ухаживания и слова любви оказались обманом. Соблазненная и брошенная, Руфь узнает, что ждет ребенка…
Крэнфорд
Классический викторианский роман Элизабет Гаскелл рассказывает о тихой жизни маленького городка со всеми её радостями и незатейливыми приключениями. Первоначально писательница задумала создать пару сатирических очерков, но Чарльз Диккенс уговорил ее написать целый роман, главы из которого публиковались в журнале “Домашнее чтение“. Ироничные и забавные зарисовки из жизни главной героини и ее подруг основаны на воспоминаниях самой Гаскелл. Эту книгу трижды экранизировала телекомпания ВВС, и истории чисто английской провинции, приправленные мягким юмором, имели неизменный успех у публики. © Storysidе
Cranford
Die Damen des fiktiven Kleinstädtchens Cranford leben in vornehmer Bescheidenheit und weigern sich entschieden, die Veränderungen des 19. Jahrhunderts anzunehmen.

In kleinen liebevollen Episoden erzählt Elizabeth Gaskell, eine enge Freundin von Charlotte Brontë, vom Landleben im viktorianischen England, von altmodischen Gewohnheiten und von stolzen Frauen, die selbstbewusst die Geschicke ihres Städtchens lenken. – Mit einer kompakten Biographie der Autorin.
