Publisher Description
The life of today's Western woman may seem difficult, but how much more complicated was it in times when she was merely her husband's property, with no say in any important matter? The novel "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall" tells the story of such a woman, who simultaneously hides a difficult past from the world. How will the one who finally learns about it react?
A widow appears at the titular manor, whose beauty and mysteriousness quickly attracts many glances, especially one - that of a certain Gilbert Markham. Her arrival is shrouded in secrecy, which causes all the local residents to start spinning theories about who she really is.
Helen Graham, for that is how the stranger introduces herself, after some time allows the aforementioned gentleman to read her diary. Very quickly, the blood-curdling events of her past life come to light, especially the story in which she leaves her husband. Unfortunately, one cannot always easily escape from past problems. Often they chase us, and even more often they catch up.
The author of this novel is Anne Brontë, who with her light pen conveyed an extremely interesting story in an accessible way. This novel does not belong to any series, but its creator has written more than one prose that can be easily associated with this story - all are fast-paced and full of mysteries that await the reader.

About Anne Brontë
Anne Brontë (1820–1849) was born in Yorkshire, the youngest of six children. Her mother died within a year of her birth, and her two eldest siblings died four years later. The Brontë children were raised in an isolated Yorkshire parsonage, where they thrived in fantasy worlds that drew on their voracious reading of Byron, Scott, Shakespeare, and Gothic fiction. Anne’s first novel, Agnes Grey, was published in a volume together with Emily’s Wuthering Heights in 1847. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall reflects her brother Branwell’s gradual descent into alcoholism, drug addiction, and madness. Both Branwell and Emily died of tuberculosis in 1848; Anne succumbed to the same illness in 1849.
