Talent does run in families…look at the Brontes. Charlotte. Sister to Emily wrote this enduring love tale. Jane Eyre is orphaned in when very young. She survives an awful childhood that did not manage to break her spirit. Jane becomes a governess at Thornfield Hall. Her employer is one Mr. Rochester who has a terrible secret which Jane uncovers. It is ironic that both Bronte sisters wrote love stories that would intrigue generations to come. Charlotte wrote three other stories but this is the one that has endured.

All of these wonderful classic tales that are being brought to us from Penguin Audio are always better to read in my judgement. If you absolute can’t find the time to read, at least hear the story told to you by very hypnotic voices
