negativelee 's review for:

Villette by Charlotte Brontë
4.0

If you like dense psychologically complex portraits and untraditional protagonists, I highly recommend this novel. Charlotte Bronte takes her reader inside the flawed consciousness of Lucy Snowe, offering an honest depiction of the unravelling mind. Her unconventional masochistic romance makes Jane's and Rochester's look tame by comparison.
