Thirty Four Ways of Looking at Jane Eyre

by Joan Givner

tagged: short stories (single author)
Description

Joan Givner engages the heart and mind in this refreshing and readable collection of short stories and essays. Nineteen pieces demonstrate, with the author's trademark acuity, how biography — and autobiography — finds its way into fiction.

Implicitly feminist, Givner's compassionate yet unflinching eye vividly renders each secret pain and joy of her protagonists' experiences. Life writing, life reading, life itself: all jump out in multidimensional clarity.
