Agnes Gray. Bronte E.

Ann Bronte (1820–1849) - a famous English writer and poetess, the youngest of the three famous sisters of Bronte. “Agnes Gray” is her deeply personal novel, which tells about the real conditions of a woman’s life in the 19th century. The daughter of a modest pastor enters a rich family with spoiled and capricious children. She will have to withstand a lot of trials, but decent education, common sense and resistance of character will help her find her path to happiness. The book draws a reliable picture of the stiff Victorian society with all its estate prejudices. But still, first of all, “Agnes Gray” is a novel about love.
