about the book is the intense and painstaking effort made..joxue.
(5) by the author, Elizabeth Gaskell, to convey the experi-..joxue.

feelings that has its own sufficient conviction...joxue.
The chapter "Old Alice’s History " brilliantly drama-..joxue.
tizes the situation of that early generation of workers ..joxue.
brought from the villages and the countryside to the ..joxue.
