Description

|
|
Charles Dickens found Elizabeth Gaskell's stories of the fictional town of Cranford to be "delightful and touching in the tenderest and most delicate manner" when he had them published in the 1850s. In the beloved BBC television series Cranford, Judi Dench, Eileen Atkins, Imelda Staunton, and Julia McKenzie brought Gaskell's world to life. This omnibus edition features the original novel of the same name—a comic portrait of the town's genteel female inhabitants, known as "the Amazons"—as well as the short story "The Cage at Cranford" and the novella "The Moorland Cottage," which was the basis of the Christmas special Return to Cranford. The book also features an introduction by series producers Sue Birtwistle and Susie Conklin.
