The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte
Anne Bronte's second novel is a passionate and courageous challenge to the conventions supposedly upheld by Victorian society and reflected in circulating-library fiction. The heroine, Helen Huntingdon, after a short period of initial happiness, leaves her dissolute husband, and must earn her own living to rescue her son from his influence. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is compelling in its imaginative power, the realism and range of its dialogue, and its psychological insight into the characters involved in a marital battle.-

Anne Brontü¾˜¦”¼ (1820-49), the youngest of the famous sisters, drew upon her experiences as a governess to write her first novel, Agnes Grey. Her second, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was partly inspired by her dissolute brother, and she died from tuberculosis a year after its publication. Despite its popularity, Charlotte Brontü¾˜¦”¼ suppressed the book's republication, leaving it to be rediscovered as an early feminist classic.
