"Wives and Daughters" centers around Molly Gibson, a young girl navigating her childhood, social class dynamics, and the complexities of love and friendship within the confines of the English aristocracy. The novel begins with Molly preparing for her first gala at Cumnor Towers, an exciting event that marks her entry into the world of the local elite. This early part of the narrative captures her youthful innocence and anticipation, particularly as she prepares to wear a bonnet she made herself. As the story progresses, Molly's interactions with her father and the influential figures in her community, such as Lord and Lady Cumnor, offer insights into the social structures and expectations that define her world. Her innocence and unguarded perspective highlight her as a character on the brink of personal growth, hinting at the relationships and emotional challenges she will face. Through Molly's experiences, the novel explores themes of love, societal roles, and the personal evolution of a young woman caught between childhood and adulthood.

PLOT:
Set in English society before the 1832 Reform Bill, Wives and Daughters centres on the story of youthful Molly Gibson, brought up from childhood by her father. When he remarries, a new step-sister enters Molly's quiet life loveable, but worldly and troubling, Cynthia. The narrative traces the development of the two girls into womanhood within the gossiping and watchful society of Hollingford.
REVIEW:
I read this book some time ago, and realised I never reviewed it! Wives and Daughters is Elizabeth Gaskell´s last book, which is a known fact as the last few chapters were never written. Besides this little inconvenience this books is a piece of genius. I think her style of writing really reached it´s hight, it was a pleasure reading that book! While you are on your way grab a copy of "North and South" as well!
