The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
Paperback - English

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a novel written by Anne Bronte, published in 1848. The story is set in the early 19th century and follows the life of a young widow named Helen Graham, who moves to the isolated Wildfell Hall with her young son. The novel is presented in the form of letters and diary entries, and is divided into three parts.In the first part, the reader is introduced to Gilbert Markham, a young farmer who falls in love with Helen when she moves into the neighboring property. Helen is guarded and aloof, and Gilbert is determined to uncover the secrets of her past. As their relationship develops, Helen begins to open up to Gilbert and reveals the tragic story of her marriage to an abusive and alcoholic husband.The second part of the novel is a diary written by Helen, which details the events leading up to her marriage and the subsequent breakdown of her relationship with her husband. The diary is a harrowing account of domestic abuse and the emotional toll it takes on Helen.In the final part of the novel, Helen's husband reappears, determined to take custody of their son. Helen must fight to protect her son and escape from her husband's control once and for all.The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful and groundbreaking novel that explores themes of gender roles, domestic abuse, and the limitations placed on women in Victorian society. It is considered one of the earliest feminist novels and has been praised for its frank and honest portrayal of the realities of domestic abuse.It was about the close of the month, that, yielding at length to the urgent importunities of Rose, I accompanied her in a visit to Wildfell Hall. To our surprise, we were ushered into a room where the first object that met the eye was a painter's easel, with a table beside it covered with rolls of canvas, bottles of oil and varnish, palette, brushes, paints, etc.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
