الوصف
At age 19 Anne Brontë left home and worked as a governess for a few years before becoming a writer. Agnes Grey was an 1847 novel based on her experience as a governess. Bronte depicts the precarious position of a governess and how that can affect a young woman. Agnes was the daughter of a minister whose family was in financial difficulty. She has only a few choices for employment. Agnes experiences the difficulty of reining in spoiled children and how wealth can corrupt morals.

I first read this book as a teenager, and I barely remembered anything—except that she marries a priest at the end, which was true.I wasn’t expecting anything grand or breathtaking, and that’s exactly what it delivers: a quiet, realistic account of a young governess and her daily struggles with her pupils. It’s very much “normal life,” and definitely not Jane Eyre with its passionate confessions and dramatic twists.Even so, I enjoyed it. There’s something charming about its simplicity and honesty, and I can see myself rereading it again in the future.
