nové vydání klasické anglické četby 'You expected bread, and you have got a stone; break your teeth on
it, and don't shriek...you will have learned the great lesson how to
endure without a sob.'
Shirley is Charlotte
Brontë's only historical novel and her most topical one. Written at a
time of social unrest, it is set during the period of the Napoleonic
Wars, when economic hardship led to riots in the woollen district of
Yorkshire. A mill-owner, Robert Moore, is determined to introduce new
machinery despite fierce opposition from his workers; he ignores their
suffering, and puts his own life at risk. Robert sees marriage to the
wealthy Shirley Keeldar as the solution to his difficulties,
but he loves his cousin Caroline. She suffers misery and frustration,
and Shirley has her own ideas about the man she will choose to marry.
The friendship between the two women, and the contrast between their
situations, is at the heart of this compelling novel, which is suffused
with Brontë's deep yearning for an earlier time.
