Cranford, A Play: A Comedy In Three Acts Made From Mrs. Gaskell's Famous Story (1905) is a theatrical adaptation of the classic novel by Elizabeth Gaskell. The play was written by Marguerite Merington and first published in 1905. The story is set in the fictional town of Cranford, where a group of middle-aged and elderly women lead a quiet and genteel existence. The play follows the lives of these women as they navigate the social conventions of their time, deal with the challenges of aging and loss, and face the arrival of new people and ideas in their community. The play is a charming and witty comedy that captures the spirit of Gaskell's original novel, with its focus on the lives and experiences of ordinary people. It is a delightful read for fans of classic literature, as well as anyone interested in the social and cultural history of the Victorian era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
