Cover of Anne Bronte: Agnes Grey (ePUB)

Agnes Grey is the daughter of a minister who faces financial ruin. Agnes decides to take up one of the only professions available to Victorian gentlewomen and become a governess. Drawing on her own, similar experiences, Anne Bronte portrays the desperation of such a position. Agnes’ livelihood depends on the whim of spoiled children, and she witnesses how wealth and status can degrade social values.
