Teacher

The first novel by Charlotte Brontë, a trial of her future masterpieces: already here there is a recognizable power of psychological portrait, a rebellion against conventions and a struggle for the right to be oneself.

After finishing Eton, William Crimsworth is left without a penny and hopes for help from his relatives, but meets only coldness and disdain. He flees to Belgium, becomes an English teacher in a girls' boarding school – and gets caught in a whirlpool of intrigues and his own feelings. Who is this book for? For readers of all ages. For fans of classic literature.
