Agnes Grey

Autor Anne Bronte
en Limba Engleză Paperback
In an effort to save her family from poverty, a young woman takes employment as a governess and discovers the great difficulties, instability, and even abuse that accompany her new position in Victorian society.

Based on Bronte's own experiences as a governess, "Agnes Grey" is a poignant tale that explores the repression of women as well as the coming of age of a young and memorable heroine. Deeply personal and socially critical, "Agnes Grey" has been described by the Irish novelist George Moore as "the most perfect prose narrative in the English language.""

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Discover the lesser-known but brilliant novel by the hugely under-appreciated Anne Bronte. When Agnes's father loses the family savings, young Agnes determines to make her own living - as a governess.

Notă biografică

Anne Brontë was born at Thornton in Yorkshire on 17 January 1820, the youngest of six children. That April, the Brontës moved to Haworth, a village on the edge of the moors, where Anne¿s father had become the curate. Anne¿s mother died soon afterwards. She was four when her older sisters were sent to the Clergy Daughters¿ School at Cowan Bridge, where Maria and Elizabeth both caught tuberculosis and died. After that, Anne, Charlotte, Emily and Branwell were taught at home for a few years, and together, they created vivid fantasy worlds which they explored in their writing. Anne went to Roe Head School 1835¿7. She worked as a governess with the Ingham
family (1839¿40) and with the Robinson family (1840¿45). In 1846, along with Charlotte and Emily, she published Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell. She published Agnes Grey in 1847 and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall in 1848. That year, both Anne¿s brother Branwell and her sister Emily died of tuberculosis. A fortnight later, Anne was diagnosed with the same disease. She died in
Scarborough on 28 May 1849.
