Manga Classics: Jane Eyre
by Crystal S. Chan, Charlotte Brontë
Finally finished Jane Eyre yesterday, and I don't get the big deal?
I know that Jane is a revolutionary, feminist protagonist throughout the majority of the novel, but the stereotypical happily ever after shits on most of the badassery that Bronte crafted throughout the story. I'm giving most of these stars based on Jane's behaviour in the first two volumes, but the third volume should have been much more worked on before publication. It's just so clichéd.
Rochester and St. John are both creeps, the narrative is repetitive and the descriptions are sprawling and yawn-inducing. I was expecting to love this book, but I felt so unmoved and apathetic towards it instead.
