Novel Pairings

79. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë Part Two


Listen Later

Today, Sara and Chelsey discuss chapters 27 through the end of Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë. We discuss Jane's journeys from coming of age to literally hiking on the moors, the juxtaposition of Rochester and another romantic interest, the ending (of course), and whether or not we think this qualifies as a "feminist text." Plus, we offer six pairings that touch on the tone, themes, and legacy of Brontë's iconic novel. We think you'll be shocked by one of Sara's pairings and can't wait to hear what you think!
