JANE EYRE - Collins Classroom Classics

This edition of Jane Eyre is perfect for GCSE-level students: it comes complete with the novel, plus an introduction providing context, and a glossary explaining key terms.

Orphaned at a young age, Jane Eyre is foisted upon unfriendly relations, sent to school to suffer illness, injustice and privation, before striking out on her own to earn her living as a governess.

Independent and passionate by nature, Jane only begins to discover fulfilment when she takes up a post at Thornfield Hall and gets to know the master Mr Rochester, a man of changeable moods. Yet will Thornfield's secrets and Mr Rochester's past prove obstacles to Jane's happiness?

With its gothic atmosphere and first-person narrative, Charlotte Bront's bildungsroman has captivated readers since its first appearance in 1847.
