Villette

When a family catastrophe strikes, Lucy Snowe leaves England to teach English in a small Belgian town. Immediately after arriving in Villette, Lucy is drawn into the town's charm, adventure, and romance. Brontë's characteristic episodes of social challenges, meticulous creation of intimacy, and realism make 'Villette' a wonderfully passionate and psychological novel. Charlotte Brontë's unromantic view on the world around her, and her outspoken opinions make this novel perfect for fans of Virginia Woolf's 'Miss Dalloway'.
