Charlotte Brontë’s romantic gothic novel, featuring one of literature’s most memorable heroines.

An unconventional love story that broadened the scope of romantic fiction,Jane Eyreis ultimately the tale of one woman’s fight to claim her independence and self-respect in a society that has no place for her.

在19世纪中叶英国偏远的乡村，女主人公简·爱是个孤儿，从小寄养在舅母家中，受尽百般欺凌。后来进了慈善学校，灵魂和肉体都经受了苦痛的折磨，但她以顽强的意志完成了学业，成绩优异。为了追求独立的生活，她应聘在桑菲尔德府任家庭教师。由于志趣相同，和主人真诚相爱，历经磨难，终于和自己心爱的人在一起。

With her 1847 novel,Jane Eyre, Charlotte Brontë created one of the most unforgettable heroines of all time. Jane Eyre is an orphan, penniless and plain, but full of courage and spirit. She has endured incredible hardship to secure her humble status as a governess in the household of her brooding employer, Mr. Rochester. Jane’s sharp wit and defiant nature meet with Rochester’s sardonic temperament. The two become enmeshed in a deep, intense bond. But Rochester has a terrible secret—a remnant from his past that could threaten any hope of happiness with his only love.

夏洛蒂·勃朗特（Charlotte Brontë，1816-1855），英国小说家、诗人，“勃朗特三姐妹”之一。生于贫苦的牧师家庭，曾在寄宿学校学习，后任教师和家庭教师。1847年，夏洛蒂•勃朗特以Currer Bell为笔名出版长篇小说Jane Eyre《简爱》，轰动文坛。其他作品有：Shirley《谢利》、Villette《维莱特》和The Professor《教师》等。

Charlotte Brontë(1816-55) was the third of the three famous Brontë sisters. Together with her sisters, Charlotte publishedPoems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell(the pseudonyms of Charlotte, Emily, and Anne). Though this sold a disappointing two copies, the publication ofJane Eyrein 1847 achieved immediate success, and stirred much speculation about the identity of “Currer Bell.” Charlotte eventually revealed her identity, and later wroteShirley(1849) andVillette(1853).
