About this ebook
A German bride discovers what her husband does and runs, in a story Gaskell built as pure terror - together with her other short fiction. The Grey Woman is the best thing she wrote outside the novels and almost nobody knows it. This edition adds a gallery of 58 plates after Friedrich, Crome, Gainsborough and Thomas Jones, 1748–1870, and two illustrations restored and coloured for this printing.
