Jane Eyre Chapter XXXVI
from The Brontë Library Hosted by The Brontë Sisters
In which we witness the solitary preparations and quiet departure of a lady from her humble refuge, her heart laden with anxious purpose and tangled hopes, leading her back through familiar yet changed landscapes to a once stately mansion now reduced to smash and silence. At a roadside inn she uncovers the melancholy tale of ruin, fire, and loss that has befallen the place, awakening in her a mixture of dread and steadfast resolve as she resolves to seek out the living amid desolation and shadows.
