Sister to
Emily and Anne, Charlotte was the only Brontë to achieve
literary fame in her own lifetime. Charlotte was a champion of the
female spirit and her Jane Eyre is an enduring classic. The novel is not normally
thought of as supernatural, but there is an episode towards to the
end where Jane hears Mr Rochester, now burnt and blind, from a
distance.
