It portrays the disintegration of the marriage of Helen Huntingdon, the mysterious ‘tenant’ of the title, and her dissolute, alcoholic husband. Defying convention, Helen leaves her husband to protect their young son from his father’s influence, and earns her own living as an artist. Whilst in hiding at Wildfell Hall, she encounters Gilbert Markham, who falls in love with her.\nOn its first publication in 1848, Anne Brontë’s second novel was criticised for being ‘coarse’ and ‘brutal’.\nThe Tenant of Wildfell Hall\nchallenges the social conventions of the early nineteenth century in a strong defence of women’s rights in the face of psychological abuse from their husbands. Anne Brontë’s style is bold, naturalistic and passionate, and this novel, which her sister Charlotte considered ‘an entire mistake’, has earned Anne a position in English literature in her own right, not just as the youngest member of the Brontë family.\nThis newly reset text is taken from a copy of the 1848 second edition in the Library of the Brontë Parsonage Museum and has been edited to correct known errors in that edition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kitabay Jaipur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48385033994463,"sku":"9781853264887_Kitabay Jaipur_68-B1","price":1152.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0302\/6927\/6291\/files\/6488x_1_ftc_dp.jpg?v=1769074423","url":"https:\/\/kitabay.com\/en-sg\/products\/the-tenant-of-wildfell-hall-3","provider":"Kitabay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
