Shirley is a passionate description of the conflict of generations, genders and social strata, in which love stories are closely intertwined with harsh reality. The manufacturer Robert Moore is going to marry the rich heiress Shirley, although his heart belongs to the dowry Caroline, and Shirley herself is in love with her brother Robert, a poor teacher. Will there be a happy ending?
Charlotte Bronte wrote "Shirley" in difficult days for her: at that time, her brother Branwell and two sisters, Emily and Ann, died of tuberculosis. The novel was published in 1849 under the pseudonym Carrer Bell. The stormy success of the book forced the author to reveal his true face and attracted the attention of literary circles in London. Charlotte turned in her novel to the beginning of the century, to the Luddite uprisings - participants in spontaneous protests against the introduction of machines during the industrial revolution in England.
