| Synopsis: |
A manuscript is discovered which appears to be the conclusion of Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre". The unearthed chapters describe a barren marriage, financial ruin, and ultimately, the death of Lord Rochester. Grace Poole, a survivor of the fire at Thornfield Hall, reveals to Jane the final Rochester secret: that a boy was born to the first Mrs Rochester in Martinique. The child was black and subsequently abandoned. As Jane Eyre and Grace Poole board a packet-boat for the Caribbean in search of Rochester's only male heir, and financial future, this novel gives an insight into the hidden eroticism of Bronte's work and deconstructs the Victorian novel. The scene abruptly changes to modern times, when a woman books into a Martinique hotel under the name Charlotte Bronte... |
