Villette Annotated edition by Charlotte Brontë Literature Fiction eBooks

This ebook includes a biographical introduction, a short, critical analysis of the Brontës and a brief introduction to this work.
Published in 1843, four years after Shirley, Villette was Charlotte Bronte’s last novel and arguably the most autobiographic. Essentially a re-write of her first, unpublished story, The Professor, it details the progress of the main protagonist, Lucy Snowe through an impressionable teenage period and then onto seeking employment in a fictional country that is based on Belgium. Securing a job in a boarding school a series of narrative developments and a plot twist kept hidden leads to a love interest in the shape of M. Paul Emanuel. Interestingly, whether this resolves into marriage at the end is left ambiguous.
Given what it followed, hindsight is sufficient to know that Villette could never have reached the heights of other Bronte novels and though there are familiar motifs and new additions such as Lucy’s difficulties in learning French – certainly drawn from real-life parallels – the themes are by now well worn. What Villette does allow is an examination of allusions, particularly in the role (and naming) of Lucy Snowe.

It was a little longwinded and took some unexpected twists and turns but did finally come out nicely in the end. Glad I read it.Product details

Villette Annotated edition by Charlotte Brontë Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I have read this book for a book club. It is probably a fine excample of
Victorian fiction, which, I have to acknowledge, is not my favorite kind of literature. Although Bronte exhibits psychological understanding ahead of her time, it is draped in so many words and so much direct address to the reader asto weary any but the most devoted lover of this form.
It did, at times, seem endless.
It was a little longwinded and took some unexpected twists and turns but did finally come out nicely in the end. Glad I read it.
