Jane Eyre

Ok, this the book review no one ever gave a deserving book. Everyone probaably thinks about it, but no one ever says anything, so, consider the silence broken concerning this issue. I am only going to touch on this, not speculate or anything else like why or anything. The book is written as a memoir or something. We know exactly how she feels and constantly tells how much she loves Mr. Rochester and yet, in the movie it appears at the same time that she is declaring undying love to the reader that she is the one keeping him at a distance, this can be explained, but I just cannot shake the idea that she loves him so entirely that she doesn't want him to know. in the movie, I am not very adept at non verbal communication and body language, but in quite a few scene she seems to be sending "Leave me alone". "I do not care for you." vibes, at the time she is writting about her undying love.

Like I said, I will not explain this further, but I will say that I love this book so much, it nearly seems real to me. I am not sure that Jane and Mr. Rochester did not live in some home somewhere and live this great story. It seems realistic to me that what appears to the man as disintrest is a desire to appear uninterested in order to be allowed to learn more and become closer like our anthropology professor explained familial circles as a great example of the social unspoken laws. And a close friend of mine explained that her daughter "brotherizes" guys. I suppose it is the same thing Jane did. Those nonexsistant laws are always tricky to bend.
