A powerful depiction of a woman's fight for domestic independence and creative freedom, from the youngest of the Brontë sisters Gilbert Markham is deeply intrigued by Helen Graham, a beautiful and secretive young woman who has moved into nearby Wildfell Hall with her young son. He is quick to offer Helen his friendship, but when her reclusive behaviour becomes the subject of local gossip and speculation, Gilbert begins to wonder whether his trust in her has been misplaced. It is only when she allows Gilbert to read her diary that the truth is revealed and the shocking details of the disastrous marriage she has left behind emerge. Told with great immediacy, combined with wit and irony, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful depiction of a woman's fight for domestic independence and creative freedom. This Penguin Classics edition of Anne Brontë's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, her groundbreaking study of a woman's valiant struggle for independence from an abusive husband, is edited with an introduction and notes by Stevie Davis. In her introduction Davies discusses The Tenant of Wildfell Hall as feminist testament, inspired by Anne Brontë's experiences as a governess and by the death of her brother Branwell Brontë, and examines the novel's language, biblical references and narrative styles.

Brontë, Anne
ANNE BRÖNTE (1820-1849) nasceu e cresceu em Haworth, Yorkshire, onde seu pai trabalhava. Ela foi educada em casa junto das irmãs e ainda criança criou, com Emily, o mundo encantado de Gondal — tema de diversos contos e poemas infantis. Seu primeiro romance, Agnes Grey, foi publicado sob o pseudônimo de Acton Bell. A inquilina de Wildfell, de 1848, é um poderoso romance que investe tanto contra as severas leis de casamento como a diferente importância dada a homens e mulheres na sociedade inglesa. Mais nova das irmãs Brontë, Anne morreu no ano seguinte à publicação. |
