About the book

Charlotte Brontë's The Professor follows William Crimsworth, a young Englishman who rejects the oppressive influence of his wealthy family and seeks independence through work. After an unhappy beginning in business, he travels to Brussels and becomes a teacher. There he encounters the intelligent and determined Frances Henri, and their developing relationship becomes central to his efforts to build a meaningful life. The novel explores independence, education, ambition and emotional self-control and contains many elements drawn from Brontë's own experiences in Brussels.
