After reading Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, I turned my china cabinet into a bookshelf. I can't help but think this is a Jane Eyre move that reflects the practical and the individual. It is a small thing, and certainly can't be compared to the choices Miss Eyre made in the novel, but it is a starting point to becoming my own personal heroine. This book is thick with the Victorian Era emphasising the limitations of women during this time which is why Jane is so heroic. She makes honest choices of spirit, and heart within her strong moral code of ethics. Her choices often deny her happiness, love, and family, but she stands by her choices. She is a lady deserving of great admiration and happiness. I strongly recommend this book to both men and women who wrestle with spirit and love under the scrutiny of ethics. Perhaps you will find yourself Eyre-like.
