Synopsis "The the Tenant of Wildfell Hall (Chiltern Classic)"

Chiltern creates the most beautiful editions of the World's finest literature. Your favorite classic titles in a way you have never seen them before; the tactile layers, fine details and beautiful colors of these remarkable covers make Chiltern classics feel extra special and look striking on any shelf. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte, tells the story of young Helen Graham's disastrous marriage to the dashing drunkard Arthur Huntingdon--said to be modeled on the author's brother Branwell--and her flight from him to the seclusion of Wildfell Hall. Pursued by Gilbert Markham, who is in love with her, Graham refuses him and, by way of explanation, gives him her journal. There he reads of her wretched married life. Eventually, after Huntingdon's death, they marry. Anne Bronte's second but last novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall was first published in 1848 under the pseudonym of Acton Bell, and was an immediate success. It is now considered to be the one of the first feminist novels.

Anne Brönte era la más joven de las hermanas Brontë. Al igual que sus hermanas Emily y Charlotte, ha pasado a la historia de la literatura a pesar de su corta vida y con solo dos novelas escritas, que publicó bajo el seudónimo de Acton Bell. Siendo una adolescente, junto a su hermana Emily, creó el imaginario reino de Gondal, acerca del cual ambas escribieron cuentos y poemas. A los 19 años entró a trabajar de institutriz, pero enseguida se sintió frustrada al no poder educar bien a una infancia que le pareció ingobernable y consentida. Esta experiencia le sirvió para moldear su primera novela, _Agnes Grey._ La buena acogida de esta obra, permitió al año siguiente la aparición de la segunda y última, _La inquilina de Wildfell Hall._ En ella, se narraba la llegada de una mujer, aparentemente viuda, y de su hijo de corta edad a una antigua mansión, hecho que desatará todo tipo de reacciones en la vecindad. Esta novela fue tachada de inmoral por sus contemporáneos debido a la dureza de ciertos pasajes. Anne murió de tuberculosis.
