The Professor is by Charlotte Bronte. A classic historical fiction novel by the author of Jane Eyre. This is Bronte's first novel. William Crimsworth is parentless and penniless. He leaves England to find work in Brussels and becomes a professor at an all boys school. He then secures an additional position at the adjoining girl's school where he is attracted to the older and more dominating directress. Then he meets another teacher at the girl's school named, Frances Henri, and the situation changes. A great look at Bronte's developing talent.
Ratings: 11th grade - 8 out of 10.
