My daughter and I read this together as a "book project"- we are catching up on the books we've been meaning to read. I liked it more than I expected. It is considered one of the first feminist books. I can see that. It is a bit melodramatic, although perhaps not as much as the works of her sisters, such as Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights. It does give an interesting perspective on well-to-do English gentlemen who do not have any purpose but to drink, hunt, and gamble!
"You would have us encourage our sons to prove all things by their own experience, while our daughters must not even profit by the experience of others."

Reason read: TBR takedown/Reading 1001, April 2024.
Finally! This book has been on my TBR forever. I enjoyed it! A tale of a young woman who marries against all advice because she believes she can change someone. This book may be old but it is still very relevant. What is old is the options that were or were not available. The dignity and "manners" that no longer exist.
It is told over a long period of time and includes the use of diaries to provide background. A book that was probably ahead of its time. ( )

If she were anyone else, Ann Bronte would be highly admired, but she is relegated to being Charlotte and Emily's sister. While I admire Emily's artistry more, I walk away more satisfied from Tenant then from Wurthering. A realistic early depiction of alcoholism and abusive relationships that was well ahead of it's time ( )
  cspiwak | Mar 6, 2024 |
I wish the middle had been much, much shorter. Very repetitive, and the protagonists were each over-the-top good or over-the-top bad. I was drawn in by the beginning section; it felt like it was going to be a slightly humorous family light comic novel. Bait & switch! It's PAMELA/CLARISSA all over again. But I'd try another Bronte. ( )

Helen gives Gilbert her diary, giving him deep insight into her art projects, thoughts, and the abusive relationship Helen had with her husband as well as the escape plan she derived to be free from the marriage. This is a lengthy book, taking the time to explore Gilbert's character and his interaction with Helen before Gilbert writes Helen's diary accounts to his friend in a letter. This is also a family-heavy story. The writing demonstrates the difference between men and women at the time: Gilbert refers to Helen's diary as his 'prize' while the diary really represents Helen's access to independence.


I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. ( )

"The reader of Acton Bell gains no enlarged view of mankind, giving a healthy action to his sympathies, but is confined to a narrow space of life, and held down, as it were, by main force, to witness the wolfish side of his nature literally and logically set forth."

Dear Halford,

When we were together last, you gave me a very particular and interesting account of the most remarkable occurrences of your early life, previous to our acquaintance; and then you requested a return of confidence from me.
