Due tormentate storie d'amore dall'indimenticabile autrice di Jane Eyre, sullo sfondo dell'Inghilterra ottocentesca. Questa raccolta contiene Shirley e Il professore, due capolavori di Charlotte Brontë, che coniugano relazioni appassionanti e poco convenzionali al vivido affresco della società del tempo. Charlotte Brontë (1816-1855) nasce a Thornton, figlia di un pastore protestante e di un'insegnante. È la terzogenita di sei figli: le due sorelle minori Emily ed Anne saranno a loro volta scrittrici (autrici, rispettivamente, di Cime tempestose e Agnes Grey).

The Professor is Charlotte Brontës first novel.

Brontë explores the relationship between power and sexual desire through William's first person narration.
