The Inky Phoenix | Villette

Villette

Charlotte Brontë

Charlotte Brontë's classic tale of Lucy Snowe, a young British woman who, after suffering a family tragedy, travels to the fictional French village of Villette, where she teaches English at a boarding school. It's a story of endurance, suspense, love, hope, and tragedy. Considered by some to be a gothic novel, Villette is known for Lucy's encounters with a frightening apparition: the possible ghost of a nun who was buried alive for having broken her vow of chastity. Villette was the third and final novel that Brontë published during her lifetime, published after Jane Eyre.
