When his career leads him to take up an additional post at a girls' school nearby, William becomes emotionally involved with the manipulative headmistress of the establishment, Mademoiselle Reuter. The tensions rise until one of his pupils and fellow teachers - for whom he has tender feelings - is suddenly dismissed and is nowhere to be found.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased on Charlotte Bronte's own autobiographical experience in Brussels as a teacher and only published posthumously, The Professor was Charlotte Bronte's first attempt at full-length fiction and bears all the hallmarks of her future work, with touches of genius and an unparalleled sharpness of style.","brand":"Bronte, Charlotte","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46626842083667,"sku":"9781847497178","price":11.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/bronte-charlotte-charlotte-bronte-the-professor-2018-paperback-9781847497178-50769877762387.jpg?v=1684428463","url":"https:\/\/theirishbookshop.live\/products\/charlotte-bronte-the-professor-2018-paperback","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
