Jane Eyre (Illustrated Edition)

Who could fail to identify with Charlotte's brave little orphan who refuses to be crushed by her bullying cousins, her sadistic head-master, or even the domineering man she loves. 'Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless?' she demands of Rochester. 'I am a free human being, with an independent will', she tells him and how we cheer as she goes on to prove it, refusing to be his mistress rather than his wife and rejecting the passionless St John Rivers.

This edition of the book contains all 14 of the original illustrations, rejuvenated.
