The Doom of the Griffiths (Esprios Classics)

by Elizabeth Gaskell

Overview

This book tells the melodramatic and tragic story of a cursed family in Wales. A mid-19th century short story that is very engaging and wonderfully written by Mrs. Gaskill. Another great book from the English novelist and short story writer, whose writings can be seen as critiques of Victorian era attitudes, particularly those toward women, with complex narratives and dynamic women characters.

About the Author

Tremendously popular in her lifetime, the books of the English author Elizabeth Gaskell (1810-1865) have often been overshadowed by her contemporaries the Brontës and George Eliot. Yet the reputation of her long-neglected masterpiece Wives and Daughters continues to grow. Gaskell wrote six novels in all — of which North and South and Cranford remain two of the best known — as well as numerous short stories, novellas, and a biography of her great friend Charlotte Brontё.
