If all the world hated you, and believed you wicked, while your own conscience approved you, and absolved you from guilt, you would not be without friends.

Prejudices, it is well known, as most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education: they grow there, firm as weeds among stones.

A Book Report of Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre is a classic romance novel by Charlotte Bront? which was published in 1847 by Smith, Elder & Company, London, and is one of the most famous British novels of all time. Charlotte Bront? first published the book as Jane Eyre: An Autobiography under the pseudonym Currer Bell, and it was an instant success, earning the praise of many reviewers, including William Makepeace Thackeray, to whom Charlotte Bront? dedicated her second

edition. The story is that of a governess, Jane Eyre. Despite her plainness, she captures the heart of her enigmatic employer, Edward Rochester, but soon discovers he has a secret that could jeopardize any hope of happiness

between them .Published in 1847, Jane Eyre brought almost instant fame to its obscure author, the daughter of a clergyman in a small mill town in northern England. On the surface, the novel embodies stock situations of the Gothic novel genre such as mystery, horror, and the classic medieval castle setting; many of the incidents border on (and cross over into) melodrama. The story of the young heroine is also in many ways conventional—the rise of a poor orphan girl against overwhelming odds, whose love and determination

Jane Eyre

Obviously this is not a book about love, although often is used as the love education of primers. Teaching of foreign literature, teacher Pan once smiled that this is a girl a must-read, because it recorded the growth of a girl, must learn to choose, and strong. Of course, my age now, to read at the age of 14 or 15 people have different feelings. Most touches my part of the book is Jane Eyre narrative youth: a sensitive and stubborn and independent consciousness with some girl, before maturity, always encounter all sorts of unimaginable misery and distress.

That kind of problem is not now best-selling writers to fabricate the bravado of suffering, it is a vaguely acidity, forever is not beautiful, despise the people around, and yet to get their identity. Age in the past, the subtle bitter is have intention to not intentional of forgotten. No one to remember, write a girl before maturity the metamorphosis of the soul. Nobody will recall the youth that just because of beautiful and get all love the "enemy", the self of the illusory sense of superiority, for those who get others agree with effort and disappointment, or a pair of inappropriate high heels. It is also essential to the growth of a girl, just like the baptism of love. Now that I think about it, if the time to read this book, at least you can understand this, but not that panicky spent during that age and humble.
