There was a wonderful founding father with a kind heart whose wife had to be kept in the basement because of her insanity. He lived in a wonderful plantation house not far from Thomas Jefferson. It was considered kind to keep them at home because they were much abused when they went to institutions especially if they were female of childbearing years from Rich families or Rich husbands. It's not hard to figure how that could have turned out

Not sure why it's surprising that the novel is written clearly. Of Nancy Drew and Sherlock Holmes, the latter is way clearer. Similarly the amount of accent in to go set a watchman made it incredibly difficult to read.

I honestly felt bad for Bertha while reading the book. She was just desperate to get her husband back but that desperation turned into rage when Rochester fell for Jane. Understandable but the arson is a bit too much

One of the US founding fathers had a mentally ill wife that he kept chained in the basement. but unlike Rochester, he reportedly loved her, treated her with gentle kindness, and wasn't seeking out a replacement.

The possibility that Bertha represents an aspect of Jane makes me want to reread not just Jane Eyre, but Villette as well, as I've always felt that the ghost nun was somehow a part of Lucy Snowe.

I almost stopped reading halfway through Jane Eyre because Mr. Rochester was so annoying and boring in his long speeches and self-important behavior. He still annoys and bores me.

German here, you said 'Bildungsroman' and while I didn't even know the word, I didn't think twice about it in an English sentence. Completely bamboozled my bilingual brain. Huh

Am i reading into it too much when i consider the name bertha? (Birth) as the one and most feminine/female act? Hormones, menstruation and even the divine being caged?
