Novel by Anne Bronte, published in 1847. The strongly autobiographical narrative concerns the travails of Agnes Grey, a rector's daughter, in her service as governess, first to the unruly Bloomfield children and then with the callous Murrays. Agnes's sole consolations in this dreary life are the natural environment and her blossoming relationship with Weston, the local curate.
It took me awhile to finish this book, I set it down several times to read something else, or because of the holidays I was busy. I am glad I have finished it, it was actually a good book.
