Description
In a small English village, an eccentric community of middle-aged and elderly women navigate gossip, propriety, and genuine affection with a dry wit that undercuts the apparent quaintness of their world. Gaskell's affectionate portrayal of female friendship and autonomy quietly subverts Victorian gender expectations.
