No home library is complete without the classics! Jane Eyre is a keepsake to be read and treasured.

When Jane Eyre was first published in 1847, it became an instant bestseller, so popular that the publisher commissioned a second printing in just three months. The story of a young girl--plain, poor, and alone--who endures abuse, abandonment, and ridicule only to become a loving, compassionate young woman of great moral character remains Charlotte Brontë's greatest achievement. Now available as part of the Word Cloud Classics series, Jane Eyre is a must-have addition to the libraries of all classic literature lovers.

About the author

Charlotte Brontë (1816 - 1855) ist die älteste der drei außergewöhnlichen Schriftsteller-Schwestern. Sie wurde am 21. April 1816 als dritte Tochter eines irischen Methodistenpfarrers im britischen District Yorkshire geboren. Sie hatte vier Schwestern und einen Bruder. Als Charlotte fünf Jahre alt war, starb ihre Mutter. Auch ihre beiden älteren Schwestern starben. Charlotte unterrichtete ihre jüngeren Schwestern Emily und Anne zu Hause und arbeitete zeitweise in zwei anderen Haushalten als Gouvernante. 1847 veröffentlicht Charlotte ihren Roman "Jane Eyre", in dem sie vom Schicksal einer Gouvernante erzählt. Die Bekanntgabe der Identität der "Brüder Bell" beim Londoner Verleger sorgte für einen Skandal. Charlotte schrieb "Shirley", reiste nach London und fand Kontakt zu literarischen Kreisen um William M. Thackeray. 1854 heiratete sie den Hilfspfarrer A.B. Nicholls, für den sie Bewunderung, aber keine Liebe empfand. Im selben Jahr erwartete sie ein Kind und bekam eine schwere Lungenentzündung, von der sie sich nicht mehr erholte: sie hatte ihre jüngeren Schwestern überlebt, starb jedoch in Haworth, drei Wochen vor ihrem 39. Geburtstag.
