"Villette! Villette! . . . It is a still more wonderful book than Jane Eyre." So wrote George Eliot about Charlotte Brontë's most autobiographical novel.
Villette recounts the true story of Brontë's unrequited love for a married schoolmaster through the adventures of her novel's heroine, Lucy Snowe, who, after disaster strikes, travels to the fictional French town of Villette to teach at a girls' school.
