Inside the story
Jane Eyre is an orphaned girl living with her aunt and cousins at Gateshead, where she is mistreated and made to feel like an outsider. Fiercely principled and deeply inward, she faces hardship with a strong sense of self.
A small, slight young woman, plainly and irregularly featured with a pale face, dark brown hair worn smooth, and thoughtful green-hazel eyes; habitually dressed in simple, sober black or grey Quaker-like gowns.
