Mary Smith, a frequent visitor to the small town of Knutsford (Cranford), keeps abreast of the goings-on of the various townsfolk through her numerous correspondences with local friends. Through her letters, the relationships of the varied residents are brought to life, illuminating the intricate social fabric of this small English town.
Along with North and South, Cranford is one of Elizabeth Gaskell’s best-known works. It has been adapted three times for television by the BBC, the most recent, in 2007, starring Dame Judi Dench and Dame Eileen Atkins as Miss Matty and Miss Deborah Jenkyns.
