Becoming Jane Eyre by Sheila Kohler

2.0

Fictional story that describes the life of Charlotte Brontë during the creation and publication of Jane Eyre.

+ Draws parallels between Charlotte Brontë and the character Jane Eyre and thereby emphasizes the autobiographical elements in the novel Jane Eyre, which added to my reading of Jane Eyre
- Childish, overly dramatic writing style. Flat characters that are reduced to one trait (The disapproving father, the addicted brother, the dependent youngest sister etc)

I probably do not care enough about Charlotte Brontë or Jane Eyre to truly enjoy this book.
