Who is the charming lady who has taken up residence in the decrepit, isolated residence of Wildfell Hall? Will that lonely woman, living with a child and an elderly maid, really be the young widow she claims to be? Helen Graham is extremely secretive, and her past is shrouded in thick mystery. But Gilbert Markham, a young country gentleman all about courting maidens, is immediately stung by a lively curiosity about the woman who treats him with unusual coldness.
In 1848, the youngest of the Brontë sisters brings to print a novel that is scandalous beyond intentions: explicit language, crude descriptions of alcoholism and brutality and, above all, the story of a woman who never loses her self-respect and fights for her independence with faith, intelligence and courage, even to the point of violating social conventions and even English law. An ante litteram feminist text in defiance of Victorian morality.
