Jane Eyre 5* Wuthering Heights 5* Agnes Grey 3* Having read Agnes Grey directly after having read Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, it couldn’t help but suffer in comparison for me. The writing was lovely, and the book’s focus on a young woman’s experience as a governess during the time it was written in was interesting. In some ways, despite the years since it’s written, there are things that have not changed. In particular, there are parents who will not hear that their children do not behave and so will not support those who must care for them, encouraging bad and entitled behaviour. Those who care for children are often under appreciated and definitely underpaid. So proving the adage that the more things change, the more they stay the same. There was interesting social and moral commentary but all the novels strengths couldn’t outweigh the overall boredom I felt while reading it. The romance was so bland and I, so not engaged with the outcome of it, that it did nothing to improve the book for me. The chief problem for me was that I just didn’t like Agnes. Apart from her being uninteresting to me, she was not a good governess. Yes, she was not empowered by her employers but she never tried to manage her charges with any kind of intelligence or kindness. She’d frequently go on about some moral ideal while judging those around her without any compassion or understanding. Had there been any kind of self awareness or accountability for her own shortcomings I may have liked her, and the book, better. Without that level of self knowledge, the book was rather flat and lacked the depth and nuance that both Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights had. This is going to be one of those books that won’t stay with me but I’m hoping to fare better with The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, which I hope to read soon.
