Excerpt from Charlotte Bronte the Woman: A StudyHere is an extract from a letter written to Ellen Nussey when Charlotte was in her last situation as governess. The Taylors had written to her from Brussels, and it is almost a premonition of what life awaited her there.I hardly know what swells to my throat as I read her (mary Taylor's) letter: such a vehement impatience of restraint and steady work, such a strong wish for wings, wings such as wealth can furnish, such an earnest thirst to see, to know, to learn, something internal seemed to expand bodily for a minute. I was tantalised by the consciousness of faculties unexercised - then all collapsed and I despaired These rebellious and absurd emotions were only momentary, I quelled them in five minutes.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
