Jane Eyre
Never before had English readers met a heroine like Jane-small, plain, and even bold and unladylike. Never before had they read such a searching portrayal of pas. sion. Nor had they entered so completely into the character of the narrator, seeing everyone and everything through her eyes and her emotions.
The first person narrative, or auto- biographical technique, had certainly been used before, but not so subjectively, so per- sonally. Indeed, Charlotte Brontë was the first subjective novelist, the literary ances- tress of Proust and James Joyce.
