Description: |
Chronicles the disillusionment, heartbreak, and final devastation of an intelligent woman who falls in love with a rake. The author's message remains relevant in a time when the dangerous lover still lurks in romance narratives, and the belief in the illusion of saving the lost soul through love retains its seductive power. |
Synopsis: |
In "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall", Anne Bronte chronicles the disillusionment, heartbreak, and final devastation of an intelligent woman who falls in love with a rake. She flees her disastrous marriage and sets up as a professional artist, a highly unusual and daring step for a woman of her time. Bronte's message remains relevant in a time when the dangerous lover, not unlike the dark and mesmerising Heathcliff and Rochester, respectively, of Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights" and Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", still lurks in romance narratives, and the belief in the illusion of saving the lost soul through love retains its seductive power. |
