  The novel follows the emotions and experiences of the eponymous Jane Eyre, her growth to adulthood, and her love for Mr. Rochester, the Byronic master of Thornfield Hall. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novel's exploration of sexuality, religion, and proto-feminism. Revolutionary in its form, the novel was the first to simulate the intimacy of first-person narration to represent an individual’s quest for agency, and meaning.
