JANE EYRE (WORDSWORTH EMPRESS) (HB)

Jane Eyre ranks as one of the greatest and most perennially popular works of English fiction. Although the poor but plucky heroine is outwardly of plain appearance, she possesses an indomitable spirit, a sharp wit and great courage. She is forced to battle against the exigencies of a cruel guardian, a harsh employer and a rigid social order. However, there is great kindness and warmth in this epic love story, which is set against the magnificent backdrop of the Yorkshire moors. This edition includes an introduction by Dr Sally Minogue.
