The Well Of Pen Morfa is a novel written by Elizabeth Gaskell. The story revolves around a young woman named Margaret who is sent to the Welsh countryside to recover from an illness. While there, she becomes fascinated with the local folklore surrounding a nearby well, which is said to have healing powers. Margaret befriends a local family and begins to uncover the secrets of the well and its history. As she delves deeper into the mystery, she discovers a dark and tragic past that threatens to destroy the community. The novel explores themes of love, loss, and the power of belief, as well as the clash between traditional Welsh culture and modernity. With vivid descriptions of the Welsh landscape and a cast of memorable characters, The Well Of Pen Morfa is a haunting and evocative tale that will captivate readers of all ages.Nest Gwynn is dead! Nest Gwynn is dead!' and, crazy with fear, it did not stop until it had hid its head in its mother's lap. The village was alarmed, and all who were able went in haste towards the well. Poor Nest had often thought she was dying in that dreary hour; had taken fainting for death, and struggled against it; and prayed that God would keep her alive till she could see her lover's face once more.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
