Jane Eyre (1847) has enjoyed huge popularity since first publication, and its success owes much to its exceptional emotional power. Jane Eyre, a penniless orphan, is engaged as governess at Thornfield Hall by the mysterious Mr Rochester. Her integrity and independence are tested to the limit as their love for each other grows, and the secrets of Mr Rochester's past are revealed. A brilliant new edition of this flagship of Victorian fiction, this book includes a new introduction and revised notes from one of the foremost Bronte scholars. This text is based on the definitive Clarendon edition, based on the original editions of Bronte's great work.

Olvasói vélemények összefoglalója

Readers broadly regard Jane Eyre as a deeply moving and memorable classic, praising its ability to remain engaging while offering emotional and moral depth. Many were especially drawn to Jane herself, finding her kind, principled, independent, and quietly strong.

The novel’s blend of romance, sensitivity, friendship, and Gothic atmosphere appealed to many readers, while its portrayal of self-respect and personal autonomy felt strikingly relevant. The writing was often described as beautiful and accessible, though some readers noticed its older style, lengthy dialogue, and extensive descriptions.

Opinions were more divided on the development of Jane’s relationship with Rochester, and some found the male characters eccentric or less appealing. Readers seeking a character-driven classic with emotional intensity, a strong female protagonist, and a touch of mystery are likely to appreciate Jane Eyre.
