Agnes Grey - Anne Brontë - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of  the book Agnes Grey:

The life and times of an English governess.

My favorite Anne Brontë quote from the book:

“The human heart is like India rubber; a little swells it, but a great deal will not burst it.”

Questions to ponder while reading the book:

Are all parents blind?

Why would anyone want to be a governess?

My review of Agnes Grey:

Another lazy day read.

Nostalgia!

I think the governess is in the worst position in the world.
