North and South by Mrs. Gaskell A powerful and enduring novel of class conflict, industrial change, and unexpected romance, North and South follows Margaret Hale as she moves from the tranquil South of England to the bustling, grim North. Confronted by harsh working conditions and the fierce pride of mill owner John Thornton, Margaret's beliefs and emotions are challenged in profound ways. A compelling exploration of social inequality, personal growth, and human compassion, Elizabeth Gaskell's classic remains a cornerstone of Victorian literature.
