About the book
A gently humorous portrait of life in a small English country town, governed largely by a community of genteel women. It follows their daily routines, customs and small crises.
From the text
“IN the first place, Cranford is in possession of the Amazons; all the holders of houses above a certain rent are women.”
Cranford · Elizabeth Gaskell

“A man,” as one of them observed to me once, “is so in the way in the house!”
“남자는 집에서 정말 방해가 된다!” 그들 중 한 사람이 내게 이렇게 말한 적이 있다.
Although the ladies of Cranford know all each other’s proceedings, they are exceedingly indifferent to each other’s opinions.
크랜포드의 여인들은 서로의 모든 행적을 알고 있지만, 서로의 의견에는 극도로 무관심합니다.
Indeed, as each has her own individuality, not to say eccentricity, pretty strongly developed, nothing is so easy as verbal retaliation; but, somehow, good-will reigns among them to a considerable degree.
사실, 각자는 매우 강하게 발달된 개성, 심지어는 기이함까지 가지고 있기 때문에 말로 보복하는 것은 쉽지 않습니다. 그러나 어찌 된 일인지 그들 사이에는 상당한 정도의 호의가 있습니다.
The Cranford ladies have only an occasional little quarrel, spirited out in a few peppery words and angry jerks of the head; just enough to prevent the even tenor of their lives from becoming too flat.
크랜포드 부인들은 가끔씩 약간의 말다툼을 하는데, 그 다툼은 몇 마디 날카로운 말과 화난 듯 고개를 휙휙 흔드는 것으로 끝나지만, 그들의 삶이 너무 밋밋해지는 것을 막기에는 충분하다.
Their dress is very independent of fashion; as they observe, “What does it signify how we dress here at Cranford, where everybody knows us?”
그들의 복장은 유행에 전혀 구애받지 않습니다. 그들은 이렇게 말합니다. "모두가 우리를 아는 크랜포드에서 우리가 어떻게 옷을 입느냐가 무슨 의미가 있겠습니까?"
And if they go from home, their reason is equally cogent, “What does it signify how we dress here, where nobody knows us?”
만일 그들이 집을 떠나면 그들의 이유는 마찬가지로 타당합니다. “아무도 우리를 모르는 이곳에서 우리가 어떻게 옷을 입느냐가 무슨 의미가 있겠습니까?”
The materials of their clothes are, in general, good and plain, and most of them are nearly as scrupulous as Miss Tyler, of cleanly memory; but I will answer for it, the last gigot, the last tight and scanty petticoat in wear in England, was seen in Cranford—and seen without a smile.
그들의 옷감은 대체로 좋고 소박하며, 그들 대부분은 깨끗한 기억력을 가진 타일러 양만큼이나 꼼꼼합니다. 하지만 제가 장담하건대, 영국에서 마지막으로 입었던 꽉 끼고 얇은 페티코트는 크랜퍼드에서 목격되었으며, 미소도 짓지 않았습니다.
I can testify to a magnificent family red silk umbrella, under which a gentle little spinster, left alone of many brothers and sisters, used to patter to church on rainy days.
나는 많은 형제자매들 가운데 홀로 남겨진 온순한 어린 소녀가 비 오는 날 그 우산 아래서 총총걸음으로 교회에 가곤 했던 훌륭한 붉은 비단 우산에 대해 증언할 수 있습니다.
