Drawing on her own experiences, Anne Bronte wrote her first novel out of an urgent need to inform her contemporaries about the only 'respectable' career open to them—that of a governess. Struggling with the monstrous Bloomfield children and then disdained in the superior Murray household, Agnes tells a compelling story of life as a governess in Victorian households.
