Description

With neither friends or family, Lucy Snowe sets sail from England to locate work in a girls’ boarding-school in the little town of Villette. There she struggles to keep her self-control in the facial skin of an originally dubious headmaster, unruly students, and her own complicated emotions, first for the school’s Language physician and subsequently for the dictatorial teacher, Paul Emmanuel. Charlotte Brontë’s final and most autobiographical book is just a incredibly moving research of solitude and the pain of unrequited love, read with a heroine decided to protect a completely independent character in the facial skin of adverse conditions.
