refreshingly light and ironic style.charlotte bronte(18161855)charlotte brontes novels were revolutionary for the explicit way they described women struggling against their restricted roles in society. her heroines are outspoken in expressing their feelings, while demonstrating honesty and conscience in their choices. her novel, janeeyre, published under a mans name, was very successful
