Introduction du livre
Sylvia's Lovers
Sylvia’s Lovers is set in a Yorkshire whaling town during the Napoleonic wars, where forced naval impressment, religious conviction, romantic misunderstanding, and family duty reshape ordinary lives. Gaskell turns local history into a powerful study of memory, grief, and moral consequence.
