In our third episode, Leah and Susan reread Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte. We both read the book in college and both of us were surprised at how political the book was, tackling issues from economic disparity to religion to sexism. From today’s perspective, we focused on female rage and how in many ways, not much has change in the 176 years since it’s been published. Will it still be a classic? How is Jane Eyre relevant today? Watch and learn!
