But Agnes’s enthusiasm is swiftly extinguished as she struggles first with the unmanageable Bloomfield children and then with the painful disdain of the haughty Murray family; the only kindness she receives comes from Mr. Weston, the sober young curate. Anne Brontë’s first novel, which draws on her own experiences, offers a compelling personal perspective on the desperate position of unmarried, educated women for whom becoming a governess was the only respectable career open to them in Victorian society.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 203mmItem Length: 133mmAuthor: Anne Brontë, Anne BronteGenre: FictionTopic: Classic FictionBook Series: Signature EditionsType: Women's Literary FictionRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
