Summary: Immediate Success
Comment: JANE EYRE is a wonderful story about a woman's struggle to survive and go on to realize her full potential. It is also a stirring tale of romance in which love conquers evil and despair.

The plot is interesting while the main characters are multi-dimensional and very intriguing. The book has almost too many characters but some are memorable simply because they seem so real.

The story begins with Jane Eyre as an unwanted orphan in the care of a cruel aunt who has two spoiled children of her own. Jane is sent to an austere boarding school where she develops into a remarkable young woman able to overcome tremendous obstacles and discouragements. She gets a job as a governess for a young girl at Thornfield which is owned by Edward Rochester. The evolving love relationship between Jane and Edward becomes the focus of the novel whose broad message is uplifting in spite of the sombre mood and tragic events which often intervene.

I like Charlotte Bronte's writing style. It is easy to see why she became an immediate success with the publication of JANE EYRE in 1847.

Summary: Jane Eyre is a timeless classic.
Comment: Jane Eyre is a timeless classic. This book combines great literature with the ever gripping universal theme of love. Bronte outdoes herself, as she passionately throws the reader into the life of a Victorian governess. The reader enters a world of heartbreak. The reader almost becomes Jane as she is neglected and mistreated by her aunt. One feels Jane's agony and desire for her master. We feel the pain as she leaves him upon discovering his wife. We feel her heart ripped open when she discovers the burnt down house. We rejoice when she and her now mamed lover are reunited. Whether male or female, whether in love or scorched by it, Jane Eyre captures the very essence of being human and experiencing love. Bronte does not speak of love, the reader does not merely read about it. Bronte immerses the reader into the experience of true love and all of the pains which come with it. Vicariously, through Jane, we delve into the matters of the heart--the only theme that truly makes a difference, and definitely composes great literature. Jane Eyre is a timeless classic.

Rating: 4
Summary: Great fiction is not an illusion
Comment: Jane Eyre is a fascinating, introspective novel about a girl who refuses to let herself be stepped on and reaches out for what she wants, while always keeping her Christian ethics in check. The writing is beautiful and haunting, and the characters are vivid and real. However, this novel relies too much on coincidence and is at times sentimental and melodramatic.. Overall, it is not nearly as good as Charlotte Bronte's final novel, Villette, which is more mature in its writing, themes and characterization.
