Description
Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre is the quintessential romantic novel, a love story regarded as one of the greatest in the English language. Her sister Anne's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a worthy companion though, a restless tale of romantic denial that grips the reader's attention in this beautiful, double foiled, deluxe edition.
