Charlotte Bronte (1816–1855) was a renowned British female writer. Jane Eyre was her breakthrough work and also her masterpiece. Jane Eyre tells the story of a kind-hearted woman pursuing freedom, independence, and love. Jane lost her parents at a young age and lived with her uncle. She suffered abuse from her aunt and cousin. By chance, she entered a charitable school, where she studied for six years and taught for two. Later, she advertised for a job and became a governess at Thornfield Hall. There, she fell in love with the master of the estate, Rochester. Just as they were preparing to marry in the church, an unexpected guest interrupted the wedding, announcing to the public that Rochester already had a wife. Although Rochester had his reasons, Jane still left him. Jane fell ill from hunger and cold and was saved by St. John. Soon, they discovered they were cousins. Jane unexpectedly inherited a substantial amount of money from her uncle and shared it equally with St. John and his two siblings. In her heart, Jane felt as if Rochester was calling her, so she left St. John to find Rochester. At this time, Rochester had regained his sight but had lost an arm, becoming disabled. Jane remained steadfast in her love for him and finally married him quietly.
