Jane Eyre is assessed as the best novel written by Charlotte Bronte. It was published in 1847; Jane Eyre brought almost instant fame to its obscure author, the daughter of a clergyman in a small mill town in northern England. On the surface, the novel embodies stock situations of the Gothic novel genre such as mystery, horror, and the classic medieval castle setting; many of the incidents border on (and cross over into) melodrama. The story of the young heroine is also in many ways conventional-the rise of a poor orphan girl against overwhelming odds, whose love and determination eventually redeem a tormented hero.
