Official synopsis Publisher
HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved, essential classics.
‘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!’
Meek, measured, but determined, Jane Eyre is a child born into unfortunate circumstances. Orphaned, mistreated by her cruel aunt and eventually sent away to boarding school, it is not until she becomes a governess at the grand and imposing Thornfield Hall that Jane begins to find happiness, becoming powerfully drawn to Mr Rochester, her brooding and stormy master. But strange and unnerving events have been occurring at Thornfield, and the demons of Rochester’s past threaten to shatter everything Jane has grown to hold dear.
Originally published in 1847 under the pseudonym Currer Bell, Jane Eyre is Charlotte Brontë’s best-known novel, a Gothic masterpiece of character and emotion.
