| It's a common misconception that the novel is soppy drivel. I had to read it for college years ago, and I was expecting the same, but it really surprised me. It's certainly not your average romance - and it's quite horrific in parts, with more in common with a gothic horror novel than Mills & Boon. If you want soppy drivel, then read her sister Charlotte's novel Vilette. That's 300 odd pages of my life that I'm nver gonna get back. :-( > > Of course I'm right, I'm originally from the area where > Bronte was born, and no self-respecting Yorkshire bloke at > that time or in this time would read such sloppy drivel. | |
