00:00Hello, everyone. Welcome to Celsius 233, your go-to place for fiction book summaries.

00:11Jane Eyre, first published in 1847, is a novel by English writer Charlotte Bronte.

00:16The story follows the life of an orphaned girl named Jane Eyre as she grows into adulthood

00:21and searches for a sense of belonging, love, and purpose.

00:25The novel is widely regarded as one of the greatest works of English literature.

00:30Blending elements of gothic romance, social criticism,

00:34and a rich exploration of personal morality and independence.

00:38Through the protagonist's emotional and psychological development,

00:42Bronte addresses complex themes such as class, gender, and spirituality.

00:47Plot summary

00:48Jane Eyre, a young orphan, grows up in the care of her cruel aunt Mrs. Reed at Gateshead Hall.

00:54The household is cold and hostile towards her, especially her cousin John,

00:58who torments her relentlessly.

01:01Isolated and mistreated, Jane's only comfort is her vivid imagination and the book she escapes into.

01:07However, one fateful incident of rebellion against John's bullying leads Jane to be locked in the dreaded,

01:13red room, where her uncle died.

01:16The room terrifies her, and the psychological toll of her mistreatment reaches a breaking point.

01:21Mrs. Reed, eager to rid herself of Jane, sends her to Lode School,

01:26a strict and harsh institution for orphaned girls.

01:30There, Jane faces severe conditions under the hypocritical Mr. Broccolihurst,

01:35the school's headmaster, whose sermons on humility and piety contrast with the lavishness enjoyed by his own family.

01:41Despite the cold, hunger, and illness that plague Lode,

01:46Jane forms a meaningful friendship with Helen Burns,

01:49a kind and devout girl whose quiet suffering leaves a deep impact on Jane.

01:53Helen's death from consumption further strengthens Jane's resolve to survive.

01:58Jane also finds a motherly figure in Miss Temple,

02:01the school's superintendent,

02:03whose kindness and intelligence inspire Jane to pursue her own independence.

02:07After six years as a student and two more as a teacher at Lode,

02:12Jane yearns for freedom and new experiences.

02:15She advertises for a position as a governess,

02:17and is soon offered employment at Thornfield Hall.

02:20When she arrives at the imposing estate,

02:22she meets her pupil, the lively and affectionate Adele Varens,

02:26and Mrs. Fairfax, the kindly housekeeper.

02:30Jane's life at Thornfield is quiet but content,

02:33until she meets the master of the house,

02:35Edward Rochester,

02:36a dark and brooding figure whose presence alters the course of her life.

02:41Rochester is enigmatic and unpredictable,

02:44often conversing with Jane in ways that challenge and intrigue her.

02:48Despite the differences in their social standing,

02:51a bond forms between them,

02:53one that grows deeper as they spend more time together.

02:56However, strange occurrences within the halls of Thornfield disturb Jane.

03:02Eerie laughter and mysterious incidents,

03:04such as a fire in Rochester's room,

03:06unsettle her.

03:08But Rochester dismisses her concerns,

03:10attributing them to Grace Poole,

03:12a servant with peculiar habits.

03:15Rochester's growing affection for Jane culminates when he declares his love for her,

03:19and they become engaged.

03:21Jane, despite her deep love for him,

03:23remains grounded in her principles,

03:25refusing to be swayed by wealth or status.

03:28The night before their wedding,

03:29Jane experiences a haunting vision of a spectral figure in her room,

03:33further amplifying the sense of foreboding.

03:36The next day,

03:37during the wedding ceremony,

03:38a shocking revelation comes to light.

03:41Rochester is already married.

03:42Jane learns that Rochester's wife,

03:46Bertha Mason,

03:47whom he had wed years ago in Jamaica,

03:48is living in the attic of Thornfield.

03:51Bertha,

03:51who suffers from violent madness,

03:53has been hidden away for years under the care of Grace Poole.

03:57Rochester admits he was deceived into the marriage by Bertha's family,

04:00who concealed her mental illness.

04:03Though he begs Jane to stay with him,

04:05promising her a life of love despite the scandal,

04:07Jane's moral compass refuses to allow her to live as his mistress.

04:12Heartbroken but resolute,

04:13she leaves Thornfield,

04:15choosing her integrity over her passion.

04:18Jane's flight from Thornfield leads her into hardship.

04:20Penaless and alone,

04:22she wanders the moors until she is taken in by the River's family,

04:25St. John,

04:26a stern clergyman and his sisters,

04:28Diana and Mary.

04:30Jane recovers her strength and takes a position as a village schoolteacher.

04:34Over time,

04:35she forms a close bond with the River's siblings,

04:38especially with St. John,

04:39though his cold demeanor leaves Jane unsettled.

04:43Eventually,

04:43Jane learns that she is related to the River's family

04:46and that she has inherited a large fortune from her uncle,

04:49John Eyre.

04:51Overjoyed by the newfound family and wealth,

04:54she shares her inheritance with her cousins.

04:57St. John,

04:58driven by his rigid sense of duty,

05:00asks Jane to marry him and accompany him to India as a missionary.

05:04Though she respects his convictions,

05:06Jane refuses,

05:07knowing that theirs would be a loveless marriage built on duty rather than affection.

05:12Her heart still belongs to Rochester,

05:14and a mysterious voice calling her name in the wind strengthens her resolve to return to him.

05:20Jane makes her way back to Thornfield,

05:22only to find the grand estate in ruins.

05:25She learns that Bertha Mason set fire to the house,

05:27and in the ensuing chaos,

05:29Rochester lost his sight and one of his hands while trying to save her.

05:33Bertha perished in the flames.

05:34Jane seeks him out at Ferndian,

05:36a remote manor where he now lives, isolated and blind.

05:40When Jane and Rochester are reunited,

05:42she finds him a changed man,

05:44humbled, repentant, and deeply vulnerable.

05:47Their love, tested by trials and separation,

05:50now flourishes in a new, equal partnership.

05:53Jane marries Rochester,

05:55and their life together is marked by mutual respect and devotion.

05:58Rochester slowly regains partial sight,

06:01allowing him to see their first child.

06:03In the end,

06:04Jane finds the belonging and love she has sought all her life,

06:08not by sacrificing her independence,

06:10but by asserting it and finding a love that complements her strength.

06:14That's all for now,

06:15but if this book spoke to you,

06:17Charlotte Bertha has more waiting for you.
