Jane Eyre (Penguin Clothbound Classics)

Hardcover copy of Jane Eyre. I loved reading Jane Eyre! This book talks about family abuse, rigid gender roles, mental health, women's rights, and more. Jane Eyre is the heroine in the book and I love her voice! There's a scene where she gives a sassy but smart answer to a rigid, vain man who questions her morals when she's a young girl.

Wonderful book! Love the hard cover.

The cover is fantastic!I had no idea what this book was about. For years I had wanted to read it, but thought that it might be too hard for me to read, that I wouldn't understand it. Could I have been more wrong? Probably, but I was immediately drawn in to this book. Of course, I had known Charlotte Bronte's name and that of her sisters as well, but while reading 'Jane Eyre' I was highly intrigued by Charlotte Bronte's life. How sad I found it to be! To lose all of your family and then to die, once finally married, and taking with you your unborn child! Ahh! This book is filled with so many great quotes, ideas, and thoughts. I loved it from the start. I love that Jane never wants, nor tries to be anything but herself. She could not allow herself to be, in the depths of her soul made to be as others were. I will not write about the plot, for I feel that you should discover it all on your own, as I did. Enjoy!

One of the greatest classics of all time!

I love this book its cloth cover feels nice and is so pretty. the book brings foot notes that explain the text further and allows further background on what's being said. it also has a thread for a bookmark put into it. beautiful book I love it and its very sturdy.

Jane Eyre is probably one of my favorites in classic literature. I have quite a few different editions of it. When I saw that it was available in the Penguin Classics hardcover, I didn't hesitate to order it. In fact, I may need to order another copy just so that I can keep one in my bookcase and the other on my nightstand. I can't praise the Penguin Classics enough. All the classics need to be made available in this form. *cough* Scarlet Letter *cough* or keeping with the Bronte name, her sister Anne Bronte's novel The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Please!!~

I love books. I love classics. Jane Eyre is a favorite and to have it bound beautifully is a delight. I have to echo many of the reviews I've read below. Why did you put an ugly price tag on the back? When it's removed, it leaves an ugly mark and removes some of the color on the beautiful fabric. It's just ridiculous that after all of the reviews, you can't affix the tag inside or leave it off entirely! I would love to give this book and the other fabric bound classics as a gift and would many times over, but it looks like I bought it damaged. This is an easy fix. Please consider changing this!

This may be entirely shallow, but I bought 8 of these books just because I was obsessed with the cover design.....they look so great on the shelf, and I am sure they are good reads too! I have only read one of the books (Wuthering Heights) and I liked it. I was planning on giving these as gifts, but now I am going to keep them! My only qualm...the pages are bright white, and I wish they had gone with a more "vintage-y" look on the inside to match the outside. But I guess they will get that with age ;)
