you know who else would have been a great poster? Elizabeth Gaskell
Cranford is basically neighborposting turned into a book
which makes me think of E. F. Benson's Lucia and Mapp books, and he would also have been a tremendous poster

societat de classes que marca el destí de la gent. Però per sort, Gaskell no cau en el cinisme i creu en un món millor. Perquè rendir-se no és una possibilitat.

Tal dia com avui del 1810 moria Elizabeth Gaskell. Va ser de sobte, mentre prenia el te de les cinc. Sembla que estava explicant la conversa amb un amic i que l’última paraula que va pronunciar va ser «Roma», una ciutat on havia sigut feliç.

Author Elizabeth Gaskell was born 216 years ago today. You might love her best for North and South and Cranford, but for me I'll always lean towards Mary Barton (1848) and its realistic look at romance among grinding poverty and social upheaval.

Mrs. Gaskell, as she is known, also wrote "The Life of Charlotte Bronte," which was the first biography of the writer. Gaskell intentionally left out the salacious bits of Bronte’s life to focus on her more upright behavior.

It is the birthday, in 1810, of English novelist and biographer Elizabeth Gaskell.
She wrote what are known as “society” novels, about the roles of women and the laws and customs that drew so many bright lines around their opportunities.

Made in Manchester: Elizabeth Gaskell (1810-65). Her wide-ranging work is valued for its social history, including first-hand accounts of Manchester’s poor, as well as its literary qualities. Much of what she wrote was innovatory or controversial. 1/5

29 September 1810 Elizabeth Gaskell was born. Her novels covered tension between workers and employers in industrial Manchester. She enjoyed travel, socialising, food. On evenings out in Paris she would ‘make a buzz of talk, look at fine dresses, and I come home hungry as a hawk about one am’.
