I’m currently reading The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte and probably won’t be finished until the weekend – so in the meantime, enjoy this teaser!

“The next minute saw me hurrying with rapid strides in the direction of Wildfell Hall – to what intent or purpose I could scarcely tell, but I must be moving somewhere, and no other goal would do – I must see her too, and speak to her – that was certain; but what to say, or how to act, I had no definite idea. Such stormy thoughts – so many different resolutions crowded in upon me, that my mind was little better than a chaos of conflicting passions.”

One day as I ground roots, putting all my anger into the satisfying crunch of the stone against stone, she put her hand on my arm, and I stopped.

“Sometimes, Darya, a curse may be a blessing,” she said.

I wonder how much really all you have seen and done has changed you. Personally, after seeing some of the dreadful things I have to see here, I feel I shall never be the same person again and wonder if, when the War does end, I shall have forgotten how to laugh.
