Eyre Buds

As two wonderful years come to an end, Piper and Lillian reflect on what we've learned from Jane Eyre.

Thank you for joining us on this journey.

Happy Jane Eyre reading and watching.

In the style of an edgy live-action Disney movie of the 2010s, Lillian and Piper come up with a sympathetic back story for Brocklehurst. He's waaaaay more relatable now. Trust us!

We also discuss the adaptations we didn't get to review, including silent films, radio dramas and plays.

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!! When it comes to character studies, we saved the best for last. So, in the spirit of giving, here's our gift to you.

The one. The only. Edward. Fairfax. Rochester.

We talk to Author Melodie Edwards about her reimagining of Jane and Edward's love story in modern-day Toronto. We talk about what inspired this story, what was easy to adapt, and which plot points were harder to figure out in this new setting.

Nature plays such an important role in this novel and we were so excited to talk about it this week. Join us as we explore the poetry, metaphors and themes of the natural world through Charlotte's writing.
