Opis

"This edition contains the original and unabridged text of The Professor."

The Professor was the first novel by Charlotte Bronte. It was originally written before Jane Eyre and rejected by many publishing houses, but was eventually published posthumously in 1857 by approval of Arthur Bell Nicholls, who accepted the task of reviewing and editing of the novel.

William Crimsworth refuses his uncle's proposals to become a clergyman. Instead he becomes a clerk for his wealthy brother, tensions and jealousies end that career and he takes a new job at an all-boys boarding school in Belgium.

William is captivated by Mlle. Reuter, the headmistress of the neighbouring all-girls school. And so starts his travails of love."
