Wide Sargasso Sea

Author: Jean Rhys

Bertha Mason's story, told in large part by Rochester. Great ambient setting, in contrast to Jane Eyre's moors.

Somehow I never loved Rochester, and this book supports that lack of worthiness. One would have to be a plain, governess type to fall for the likes of him..just like Jane, romantic fool that she is.
