As an adult, Jane accepts a position as a governess to the brooding and sardonic Mr. She bravely endures years of cruelty at the hands of teachers. Despite the abuse, her spirit never breaks. As a child, she is systematically bullied, emotionally abused and shaped into a practical, introverted, aesthetically severe young woman. Jane Eyre is orphaned, unloved and unwanted.

Jane, You’re A Strange And Almost Unearthly Thing Everything about it is designed to enthrall, holding the reader and the viewer spellbound as Jane’s unfortunate childhood starts her on a path destined to discover her soulmate and her life. Truth be told, this story never gets old. There are numerous film adaptations and mini-series which tell the story of Jane Eyre, the titular heroine in Brontë’s gothic romance.
