Mary Barton

Mary Barton, the debut novel by English author Elizabeth Gaskell, was published in 1848 and paints a vivid portrait of life in 1830s and 1840s Manchester. This powerful narrative delves into the harsh realities faced by the Victorian working class, centering around two families—the Bartons and the Wilsons.
