Orphaned, Jane Eyre, grows up in the home of her heartless aunt, where she endures loneliness and cruelty, and at a charity school with a harsh regime. This troubled childhood strengthens Jane's natural independence and spirit - which prove necessary when she finds a position as governess at Thornfield Hall. But when she finds love with her sardonic employer, Rochester, the discovery of his terrible secret forces her to make a choice. Should she stay with him and live with the consequences, or follow her convictions, even if it means leaving the man she loves?

A novel of intense power and intrigue, Jane Eyre (1847), dazzled and shocked readers with its passionate depiction of a woman's search for equality and freedom.

Beautifully Narrated

I read this story, myself, almost 50 years ago. Wanting to refresh my recollection, and unable to tolerate reading at length, decided to experience it via audio. Ms Popplewell has a pleasing voice and did a wonderful job narrating.

a sensitive, skillful performance

As a professor of British novels I teach *Jane Eyre* fairly often. Popplewell gives
an impressively sensitive, unabridged reading of this challenging and meaningful novel. Her voice is lovely and consistent, and she lends characters' voices thoughtful inflections of pain, joy, sorrow, love, and even hard cruelty when Brontë calls for them.

THE Very BEST Jane Eyre narration!!!!!!!!

I absolutely loved this narration of Jane eyre. I would give it 10 Stars if I could! absolutely superb. Nimbly handles Jane, Mr Rochester St. John and all the rest!

The best Narrator!

Anna Popplewell gives the best narration for Jane Eyre on Audible by far. I loved it so much I plan to search for my next listen by her name.

This was my second time through JE after a decades-long break and it did not disappoint.

Beautifully done.

I’ve always loved this story; true hopeless romantic.
It’s hard to listen to books when you don’t like the performance, but Anna Poplewell narrated this perfect.

Beautiful Tale of a Good Woman’s Faithful Strength

This was such a joyful listening experience. The writing of this classic book is elegant and warm. The narrator truly captured Jane’s voice. This one will stay with me…thank you.

Best narrator

Love the story. I’ve listened to two different narrators and Ms. Popplewell does the best job. Her voice varies enough for characters, but is not distracting.

Great narration

It's amazing

Extremely moving and beautifully read

It is difficult to find a satisfying narration of this classic—the narration is often too stiff or too stuffy—but Anna Popplewell exceeded all expectations. The novel requires a reader who is able to feel with Jane, who is open to her sensitivities as well as to the sharpness of her wit. The youthful emotion and attentiveness of Ms Popplewell’s narration truly did this justice. I’m very grateful to have discovered it.
