Jane Eyre

More about the book

"When nineteen-year-old Jane, an orphan who had spend her early years in a poorly maintained boarding school, takes a position at Thornfield Hall as governess to Rochester's ward, she finds herself falling in love with her employer but is dismayed to see him court another woman. More distressingly, mysterious noises are emanating from the attic and rumors aboud about the presence of a madwoman in the house. The wild beauty of the Yorkshire moors and the brooding atmosphere of Thornfield enhance the grand scale upon which the love between these two independent-minded people is played out"--P.
