“IN the first place, Cranford is in possession of the Amazons; all the holders of houses above a certain rent are women.”
A British novelist and short story writer during the Victorian era. Her novels offer a detailed portrait of the lives of many strata of society, including the very poor, and as such are of interest to social historians as well as lovers of literature.
