It tackles ideas of gender equality and is responsible for the name Shirley (the female protagonist's name) becoming a common woman's name-before the publication of this, it was a distinctly masculine name. Charlotte Brontë (1816 - 31 March 1855) was an English novelist and poet, and the oldest sister in the world-famous trio of literary sisters. Along with her sisters', her novels have become classics of English literature still read and enjoyed by people of all ages the world over.

Chesterton, and an essay by Virginia Woolf on the Brontë family home, Haworth.
