Features: Jane Eyre, an orphaned girl, becomes a governess at Thornfield Hall and falls in love with the master, Mr. Rochester. However, she is poor and plain in appearance. When it comes to "wealth," she only has a sharp mind, wise conversation, and a pure but (unyielding) heart. How can these qualities compete with the beautiful and proud young woman, Blanche, who is wealthy and influential? To everyone's surprise, Mr. Rochester is particularly fond of Jane. She happily accepts his proposal, only to be shocked to discover that he already has a wife—the mad woman in the attic. Since its publication over a hundred years ago, the book has been beloved by young readers worldwide. Due to Charlotte Bront?'s vivid portrayal of faithful love, the charm of Jane Eyre has endured.
