Jane Eyre: An Autobiography

About

Orphaned and mistreated in childhood, Jane Eyre survives a harsh charity school before taking a position as governess at Thornfield Hall, where she is drawn into a turbulent love affair with its brooding master, Mr. Rochester. When a terrifying secret hidden in the attic surfaces, Jane must choose between passion and principle. Told as a fierce first-person confession, the novel weaves together questions of faith, conscience, class, and female independence. Its self-possessed heroine transformed the possibilities of the English novel and remains one of the most iconic figures in Victorian literature.
