Cranford, Chapter 6 - Poor Peter

Relax listening to the sixth, extremely sad chapter of Elizabeth Gaskell's classic novel, where Miss Matty tells the story of her brother, Poor Peter. The story is so poignant that she is only able to tell it in the dark.

Even though this was such a sad part of the story, I am still so enjoying your reading. Many thanks💞

Such a sad yet beautiful part of the story. Thanks Mandy 🙏🏻

Poor Peter doesn’t sound to be so “poor”… and I fell asleep midway, maybe things changed for him. I’ll give it another listen to find out what happens. Thanks Mandy for your excellent reading. … Okay, I listened to the whole chapter this morning and now I get it!! Very touching story. Poor Matty and her poor mother!! 😢

That was sad… poor Peter. People can be so awful, but the father lived to regret being so cruel. Well told, my dear, thank you!❤️🙏🏼
