Round the Sofa; vol. 1 by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell
"Round the Sofa; vol. 1" by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell is a collection published in 1859. The volume uses an ingenious framework: narrators gather around a sofa, taking turns sharing tales. It opens with the framing story "Round the Sofa," followed by the novel "My Lady Ludlow." This inventive structure transforms separate narratives into an intimate evening of storytelling, where each voice contributes to a collective experience of mystery, history, and human nature.
