Shirley

Charlotte Bront followed up the very successful publication of Jane Eyre with Shirley, a social chronicle of England during the Napoleonic wars and Luddite revolts of 1811-12. The novel contrasts two very different characters: Caroline Helstone and Shirley Keeldar; one is trapped in a life devoid of privilege, the other set free by sudden wealth.Sayre Street Books offers the world's greatest literature in easy to navigate, beautifully designed digital editions.
