Drawing on her own experience, Anne Bront??? exposes the isolated world of a nineteenth-century governess in her debut novel, Agnes Grey. Complete & Unabridged. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is introduced by historian and biographer, Juliet Barker. Agnes Grey is the youngest daughter of a clergyman. When the family falls on hard times, she insists on finding work as a governess in order to help her family and prove to them that she's no longer a child. But her idealistic spirit is tested in her first position with the Bloomfield family and their unruly and spoilt children. Next she works for the even wealthier Murray family, whose scheming daughter Rosalie threatens to jeopardize the only bright spot in Agnes's life: the young curate Edward Weston.

Agnes Grey tells of the trials and silent agonies suffered by a gentle governess, commenting on the families she lives with and yet is not a part of - the vulgar Bloomfields and the worldly, grasping Murrays - all the while quietly yearning for Mr. Weston, the curate of the parish. Outwardly it may seem to lack the excitement of the story of Jane Eyre, Agnes' literary sister, but this novel positively sings with quiet happiness, warmth, and rewarded patience. Edward Weston may not be Jane's Mr. Rochester, but I like him infinitely better.
