Charlotte Brontë

Jane Eyre

Orphaned into the household of her Aunt Reed at Gateshead, subject to the cruel regime at Lowood charity school, Jane Eyre nonetheless emerges unbroken in spirit and integrity. She takes up the post of governess at Thornfield, falls in love with Mr. Rochester, and discovers the impediment to their lawful marriage in a story that transcends melodrama to portray a woman’s passionate search for a wider and richer life than Victorian society traditionally allowed. With a heroine full of yearning, the dangerous secrets she encounters, and the choices she finally makes, Charlotte Brontë’s innovative and enduring romantic novel continues to engage and provoke readers.

    A novel that started with an intriguing plot, a story of a young girl child, and later the plot shifted and slightly came across as flat. But as the plot succeeded, it became intersting, and the love of Mr. Rochester and Jane can be seen in its full blown form. The novel ended leaving an imprint of the lives of the characters that we explored and left us feeling content.

    Such an inspiring and intense story about resilience, determination and emancipation. Also loved the Gothic trace imbued in this novel publicated during the Victorian era.

    “Love your enemies; bless them that curse you; do good to them that hate you and despitefully use you.”

    “Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?—a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!—I have as much soul as you,—and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh;—it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God’s feet, equal,—as we are!”
