Description
Edward Rochester's story has long been one of literature's most romantic and enduring tales. In this gorgeous retelling, Sarah Shoemaker brings to life the enigmatic hero as he shares his journey for the first time. Born into a world of privilege, Edward is forced to confront the harsh realities of his place in life when, on his eighth birthday, he is banished from Thornfield Hall. As he navigates the complexities of adulthood, Edward becomes entangled with an enticing heiress and makes a choice that will haunt him for years to come. It isn't until he returns home and meets a stubborn, plain young governess that he sees a chance at redemption - and love. This beautifully rendered retelling is a fresh take on a beloved story, one that will completely change how we read and remember Jane Eyre.
