HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. Based on Charlotte Bronte`s own experiences as a governess in Brussels, her last novel tells the story of lonely Lucy Snowe who finds employment at a girls` boarding school in the town of Villette. Finding the students challenging and experiencing the pain of unrequited love for the first time, Lucy becomes increasingly isolated in a world governed by societal expectation and struggles to maintain her integrity in the face of her envious and watchful employer, Madame Beck.
