Jane Eyre

O čom je kniha Jane Eyre?

Orphaned into cold charity at the hands of her rich cousins and later, at Lowood School, Jane escapes to take up a position as governess to the young ward of Mr Rochester. Their love affair, Jane's discovery of Rochester's secret - hideously concealed in the attic of Thornfield Hall - and her desperate flight are told in a drama of passionate intensity whose pace never slackens.

Jane Eyre is a love story with a happy ending, rare in its time for its sympathetic portrayal of the love of a married man for another woman. It is, as Thakeray said, 'The masterwork of a great genius'. (Založil/a: novotanna)
