Currently reading Elizabeth Gaskell's 'North and South' (1855). Discovered that there was a television dramatisation in 2004. Partially centred round a labour dispute . #Victorian, #literature, #elizabethgaskell, #19thcenturynovels.

Happy Birthday to #ElizabethGaskell, born on 29th September 1810. Gaskell wasn’t just a talented writer; she showed that women could be wives and mothers while challenging expectations, following their passions, and achieving their dreams. A true icon in every sense.
Tal día como hoy de 1810 nacía #ElizabethGaskell, cronista de la Inglaterra rural victoriana. Pasó a la historia por mérito propio (Norte y Sur, Cranford...) y por biografiar a su gran amiga #CharlotteBrontë en un libro que amplió el mito de las 3 Brontë cumulosylimbos.blogspot.com/2013/02/eliz...
"Sometimes one likes foolish people for their folly, better than wise people for their wisdom."

Aye, John, lad, that might be so, but to loosely quote Shrek: "You have the right. What you lack, is the capacity." 🤣🤣🤣
