Description

Widely considered to be one of the greatest novels in the English language, Charlotte Bronte’s semi-autobiographical epic masterpiece is brought to life in one concise volume. The classic story of a strong-willed woman growing up in 19th Century England is presented as an exciting and fast-paced graphic novel which remains faithful to Bronte’s original text. Specially commissioned full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this stirring tale. Speech bubbles work with the main text to emphasise and enhance the retelling. A running glossary at the foot of each page helps young readers with any challenging vocabulary without disrupting their reading experience. End matter provides information about the author, the historical background to the period in which the author lived and a timeline of world events that places the work in its historical context.
