In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. By a choice of vows each undertakes to stay with the other through the good times and the bad. And most probably there will be plenty of both and much in between. But the union of marriage comes in many shades and hues, some balanced, some destined to last a lifetime and others set to fizzle out or stumble to an ill-mannered conclusion in separation or divorce and, of course, death.

Von 1851 bis 1853 veröffentliche Charles Dickens in seiner Zeitschrift Household Words eine kleine vergnüglich-ironische Serie über ein fiktives Kleinstädtchen: Cranford. Verfasst wurde sie von der britischen Schriftstellerin Elizabeth Gaskell. Die Autorin erzählt in liebevollen Episoden vom Leben im victorianischen England, von altmodischen Gewohnheiten und von selbstbewussten Frauen, die die Geschicke ihres Städtchens lenken – darunter die vernünftige Deborah und ihre sanftmütige, dabei etwas furchtsame Schwester Miss Matty, oder von Miss Betsy, die wohl die einzige Kuh Englands besitzt, die Flanellanzüge trägt.

At some point in our lives we believe that creak, that low moan, that whisper is something unnatural, beyond our comprehension. And in these stories our instincts are right. We are afraid. And we should be. Perhaps even terrified. In this volume our classic authors take different approaches, but the result is inevitably the same. We are hooked by these unknowable forces, our emotions heightened and rattled by the expectation - or shock - of the next few words.
