4.9/5 (14085 ratings)

Description:Eight writers respond to Charlotte Bronte's classic novel Jane Eyre. Remember Jane Eyre? The young orphan girl persecuted by her foster family and locked in the terrifying red room? The schoolgirl who watches her best friend die in the brutal conditions of Lowood School? The new governess who comes to the mysterious big country house and encounters the dark and brooding Mr Rochester? The Mr Rochester who locked his mad first wife in the attic? Since it was first published in 1847, Jane Eyre has become one of the most popular novels in English. The romance of plain Jane Eyre and the handsome Mr Rochester is one of the most enduring in literature. Susan Geason has assembled a fascinating collection of writers who have been inspired by Jane Eyre: Rosie Scott the New Zealand-born-Australian-resident author of Movie Dreams and other acclaimed novels, writes a passionate essay about the cruelties of Jane Eyre's childhood. Amy Witting, the highly regarded Australian author of The Visit and I for Isobel, contributes fiction in the form of a series of letters to Jane Eyre from her friend Mary Ann Wilson, and provides a picture of how another young woman in Jane Eyre's place may have turned out. Carmel Bird - you'll all know Carmel from having sold her new book Automatic Teller (Oct 96), the revised Dear Writer (June 96) and the reissue of Bluebird Cafe. (All in Vintage.) In her inimitable, quirky, witty style, Carmel imagines a conversation with Jane Eyre about how she has been interpreted down the years. Jean Bedford, author of the novels Sister Kate and If With a Beating Heart, updates Jane Eyre's story in a spellbinding piece of fiction. Juliet Barker is the author of the biography The Brontes, and gives us the background to Charlotte Bronte's own childhood and its influence on Jane Eyre. Lyndal Gordon is Charlotte Bronte's biographer, and this extract from her biography discusses the writing of Jane Eyre. Bev Raphael is a psychologist who works with abused children and does grief counselling. In a fascinating essay she examines Jane Eyre as a case study of an abused child.
