This troubled childhood strengthens Jane's natural independence and spirit - which prove necessary when she finds employment as a governess to the young ward of Byronic, brooding Mr Rochester. As her feelings for Rochester develop, Jane gradually uncovers Thornfield Hall's terrible secret, forcing her to make a choice. Should she stay with Rochester and live with the consequences, or follow her convictions - even if it means leaving the man she loves? A novel of intense power and intrigue,Jane Eyredazzled readers with its passionate depiction of a woman's search for equality and freedom.

The eldest in the famous literary trio of Brontë sisters, Charlotte Brontë was born on 21 April 1816 in Thornton, England. Having unsuccessfully tried her luck along with her sisters at running a school, Charlotte turned to writing and gave English literature such fictional masterpieces as Jane Eyre, Shirley and Villette. She also composed poetry like her sisters. They published their poetry as Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell, their pseudonyms, in 1846. Charlotte married in 1854. She was pregnant when she died probably of hyperemesis gravidarum on 31 March 1855.
