Jane Eyre est pauvre, orpheline, pas très jolie. Pourtant, grâce à sa seule force de caractère, et sans faillir à ses principes, elle parviendra à faire sa place dans la société rigide de l'Angleterre victorienne et à trouver l'amour... Une héroïne qui surmonte les épreuves sans perdre foie en son avenir, une intrigue où se succède mystères et coups de théâtre, une passion amoureuse qui défie tous les obstacles : le plaisir de lire Jane Eyre est toujours aussi vif. Comme elle, on veut croire que rien n'est écrit d'avance et que la vie réserve des bonheurs imprévus.
