Our fourth Bronte, - Helen will be released for sale tomorrow night.
Helen Graham was the mysterious tenant in the Tenant in Wildfell Hall, Anne Brontes final novel, which is considered to be the first sustained feminist novel. In her diary, Helen writes about her husband's physical and moral decline through alcohol, and the world of debauchery and cruelty from which she has fled. This novel of marital betrayal is set within a moral framework tempered by Anne's optimistic belief in universal salvation
May Sinclair, in 1913, said that the slamming of Helen's bedroom door against her husband reverberated throughout Victorian England. In escaping her husband, Helen violates not only social conventions, but also English law.
