Reader's note

A wonderful 1973 edition of Villette by Charlotte Bronte! Villette is essentially Lucy Snowe’s story. It is the story of a lonely woman who has to earn her own living and maintain her own integrity; a woman plain, insignificant, belonging to a grade of society then little regarded; but a woman of fire beneath ice, a woman physically weak but mentally and morally strong, a woman of fierce nobility of soul, of ardent passion. Her bold spring into the outer world after a long enervating bout of sickroom nursing, her venture to London and across the sea to a strange land, truly thrilling. We can respect the claim which Lucy Snowe’s experiences implies, that every human being, however outwardly insignificant, has the right to experience ardent emotion, to live and love, rejoice and suffer. Villette is a cry of woman’s pain and heartbreak, unsurpassed in English literature.
