I didn't know much about her until I watched some of the adaptation to Tenant a couple years ago and then, I knew I had to read her especially for the Club. I found the book a bit tough. Anne's tone in it is similar to another of my favourite Victorians: Thomas Hardy. It's realistic and honest portrayal of how life could be for Victorian women. I'm glad I read it though because it read both as a character novel, but also as a book on social history. Also, I loved Anne's style. I'd like to know how you find it because her sense of humor is modern and slightly cheeky. I have Tenant coming up eventually. Thanks again and I hope you enjoy Agnes Grey! :)Athenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10964289676270106473noreply@blogger.com
