The Tenant of Wildfell Hall - Anne Bronte
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful and sometimes violent novel of expectation, love, oppression, sin, religion and betrayal. Defying convention, Helen leaves her husband to protect their young son from his father's influence, and earns her own living as an artist. It portrays the disintegration of the marriage of Helen Huntingdon, the mysterious tenant of the title, and her dissolute, alcoholic husband.
On its first publication in 1848, Anne Brontë's second novel was criticised for being 'coarse' and 'brutal'. Whilst in hiding at Wildfell Hall, she encounters Gilbert Markham, who falls in love with her. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall challenges the social conventions of the early nineteenth century in a strong defence of women's rights in the face of psychological abuse from their husbands.
Anne Brontë's style is bold, naturalistic and passionate, and this novel, which her sister Charlotte considered 'an entire mistake', has earned her a position in English Literature in her own right. zdroj: www.slovart.cz
