“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”
Jane Eyre is a public-domain work, here read aloud in a studio AI narration (a new AI performance, not the author’s recorded voice).
Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855) published Jane Eyre under the ambiguous name Currer Bell, and its fierce first-person voice startled a public unused to hearing a woman claim moral equality. The eldest surviving sister of the Haworth parsonage, she outlived all her siblings and died at thirty-eight.
