Produktbeschreibung

In a time of unrest, love and ambition are tested against the forces of change. Set during the turbulent years of the Industrial Revolution and the Luddite uprisings of early 19th-century England, Shirley intertwines romance, social commentary, and vivid historical detail. At the center of the story is Shirley Keeldar, an independent and wealthy young woman who challenges the era's expectations for women, and Caroline Helstone, a gentle but determined clergyman's niece. Around them swirl factory disputes, economic hardship, and questions of gender, class, and self-determination. Brontë's second published novel moves beyond the intimate focus of Jane Eyre to present a broader social canvas, without losing her gift for compelling characters and emotional depth.
