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. Drawing on her own experience, Anne Brontë's first novel offers a compelling personal perspective on the desperate position of unmarried, educated women for whom becoming a governess was the only respectable career open in Victorian society.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBAuthor: Anne BrontëContributor: Angeline Goreau (Introduction by), Angeline Goreau (Notes by)Genre: FictionTopic: Classic FictionRelease Year: 1988 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
