Charlotte Brontë nacque a Thornton, nell’Inghilterra settentrionale, nel 1816. Figlia di un pastore protestante di origine irlandese, dopo la morte prematura della madre, assieme alle sorelle Maria, Elizabeth e Emily venne iscritta a un collegio riservato alle figlie di ecclesiastici. Da questo soggiorno torneranno solo Charlotte e Emily, autrice di Cime tempestose: le sorelle maggiori vi morirono nello stesso anno, e Charlotte attribuì sempre queste morti precoci alle pessime condizioni igieniche del luogo. La scuola fornirà il modello per il truce scenario di Lowood, l’istituto descritto in Jane Eyre, il suo romanzo più famoso, uscito nel 1847. Visse quasi sempre a Haworth, nella casa paterna, con le sorelle Emily e Anne (autrice di Agnes Grey e La signoradi Wildfell Hall, di prossima pubblicazione per Neri Pozza), e il fratello Branwell. È autrice di altri tre romanzi, Shirley (1849), Villette (1853) e The Professor (pubblicato postumo nel 1857). Dopo la morte dei fratelli vinse finalmente le resistenze paterne e nel 1854 si sposò, ma morì l’anno successivo, a trentanove anni.

Have you read it?» exclaimed George Eliot when Charlotte Brontë's final novel appeared in 1853. "It is a still more wonderful book than "Jane Eyre". There is something almost preternatural in its power."Arguably Brontë's most refined and deeply felt work, Villette draws on her profound loneliness following the deaths of her three siblings. Lucy Snowe, the narrator of Villette,flees from an unhappy past in England to begin a new life as a teacher at a French boarding school in the great cosmopolitan capital of Villette. Soon Lucy's struggle for independence is overshadowed by both her friendship with a worldly English doctor and her feelings for an autocratic schoolmaster. Brontë's strikingly modern heroine must decide if there is any man in her society with whom she can live and still be free.
