Jane Eyre (top Ten Literary Classics in the World)
About This Novel
This book tells a story: Jane Eyre's parents died when she was young, and she took refuge with her cold aunt, but her aunt ruthlessly abandoned her. She spent six years as a student and two years as a teacher in a charity school. At the age of eighteen, Jane Eyre was hired as a tutor at Thornfield House and met her master Rochester. Both of them were attracted by each other's unique temperament and rich emotions, so they fell deeply in love regardless of the huge gap in identity and status. Just as they were holding their wedding, someone proved that Rochester's ex-wife was still alive. Jane Eyre knew that they could not have an equal marriage, so she chose to leave. Later, Jane Eyre accidentally met her cousins and inherited an inheritance from her uncle. But she could not resist her longing for Rochester, so she returned to Rochester, who had lost her wealth and her body was severely damaged by the fire, and resolutely married him. Under the bath of love, Rochester found happiness and health.

Perhaps the plot of the novel may be a bit outdated for today, but it is really shocking for that era to be written like this.
This is a good book and worth reading
I still can't forget that girl - Helen, her fate was so tragic. On the night when she was about to return to heaven, Jane and she slept in each other's arms. It is unimaginable that this may be the only happy thing that happened to this girl in her short life. [Emot=default,06/]
"Jane Eyre" Book Review: The Eternal Hymn of the Independent Soul "Jane Eyre" is not a love novel in the traditional sense, but a "declaration of self-awakening" written from a female perspective. Through the character of Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte broke the stereotype of "weak and dependent" women in 19th century literature, and used her life trajectory to interpret the spiritual core of "personality independence above all else". Jane Eyre's charm never lies in her appearance or identity, but in her "uncompromising" from beginning to end. When she was a child, she faced the oppression of her aunt and the boarding school. She refused to swallow her words; as an adult, she dared to tell Rochester that "our souls are equal" and did not lower her attitude because of class differences; when she found out that Rochester was married, she chose to leave even though she was deeply in love, adhering to the bottom line of morality and personality. This sobriety of "keeping true to one's heart despite millions of temptations" is the core of the character's appeal even after hundreds of years. The love line of the novel also serves the theme of "independence". The union of Jane Eyre and Rochester is not the cliché of "saving and being saved", but the equal embrace of two souls after going through hardships: Rochester lost his arrogance due to blindness, while Jane Eyre gained financial independence through self-struggle, and finally came together as a "complete person". This value of "be yourself first, then embrace love" still provides spiritual resonance for modern women. Even today in the 21st century, the significance of "Jane Eyre" is still fresh. It reminds everyone that true dignity never comes from external conferment, but from the inner firm pursuit of equality, freedom and self-worth - this is the eternal power of this classic literary work across time and space.
The story is very touching. Jane Eyre is a brave woman.
I have read this book many times, but every time it is a different education
