About this product

Product Information

When Paul Manning begins working as an engineer clerk for the railroad, he decides to move in with his mother's family on their farm. There, he is able to be closer to his job as the railroad paves the way for further industrialization of rural areas. While Paul is advancing in his career and settling in his new home, his attention is held by his cousin, Phillis. Paul and Phillis become quick friends and confidants. Worried for her, Paul keeps a close eye on Phillis as she comes of age. Because of Phillis' beauty and high intelligence, she does not seem to fit into any social circles. Many other women feel that she is not lady-like enough, and men are threatened by her superior intellect. However, as Paul and Phillis grow closer, Phillis meets his boss, and quickly falls in love with him. Edward Holdsworth, Paul's boss, is a very intelligent man, and is not intimidated by Phillis' equal intellect. Though, as their relationship continues, Paul becomes uneasy about the match, feeling uncomfortable about the age gap between his cousin and Holdsworth. Despite his objections and guidance, Phillis ultimately must decide her place in the world by herself. As she grows older, this only becomes more confusing as the Industrial Revolution rises alongside her, changing a world that she never yet had the chance to gain footing in. Separated into four parts, Cousin Phillis contains a narrative the spans throughout both Paul and Phillis' coming of age as they grow, find occupations, love, and navigate the rigid social expectations of the Victorian era. Considered by literary critics and professionals to be one of Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell's crowning achievements, Cousin Phillis is a moving narrative filled with drama, sentiment, and humor. While Cousin Phillis reveals thoughtful perspectives on Victorian life, especially regarding gender dynamics and social changes amid the Industrial Revolution, it also portrays the universally relatable experience of coming-of-age, creating a narrative with both historical significance and timeless relatability. This edition of Cousin Phillis by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell features a striking new cover design and is printed in an easy-to-read font, making it both readable and modern.

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
