The Enthusiast's Guide to Jane Eyre is an informative website about Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontė. I'm a huge fan of the novel and have spent more time than I should looking up everything I could about it. My goal with this website is to catalogue all the things I've found, with a focus on different film, radio, book and theatre adaptations. This is not a comprehensive look at the novel and it's development and themes (there are tons of books that do a great job with that!). I see this website as more of a way for people who love the novel and the story to find out more about different, esoteric aspects of the book. I hope to keep this website growing with more informative, fun and interesting tidbits. Thank you for visiting!
Note: This website was previously called The Enthusiast's Guide to Jane Eyre Adaptations, but I decided to drop the last word so that I can also include information and thoughts about the novel itself on the site..
THE GOVERNESS OF THORNFIELD takes the story of Jane Eyre and puts the reader in the governess’s shoes, maneuvering their way through disagreeable relatives, mysteries in the attic, and forbidden or unwanted romance. By experiencing the full story of the classic novel by Charlotte Brontė, the reader makes all the key decisions with potentially new dramatic, romantic, or deadly outcomes.
Through this book, you can follow the twists and turns of Charlotte Brontė’s beloved story and discover how well you navigate the pitfalls of love, temptation, and despair and if it will result in your own unique happy ending.
This book is available to read for free on the Inkitt website. It's also available on Amazon as an ebook or paperback.
This is a fan video I made using clips from Jane Eyre 2011- it's a really quick visual run through of the story, with a focus on the romance of course! I really loved putting clips of this visually stunning film to an equally stunning orchestral piece.
This website is a labor of love first created in 2006. If you would like to get in touch to talk about this awesome novel, find me on twitter or by email. Email: eyreguide@gmail.com
