I am far from the only reader who adores these heroines. After all, there is a reason why their quotes are famous even among non-readers. These characters were revolutionary: they made their mark in our collective consciousness to such an extent that we know their names even if we haven’t read their books (although, if that’s the case, what are you waiting for?). In 1913, Mary Sinclair said, about the heroine of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, “the slamming of Helen Huntingdon’s bedroom door against her husband reverberated throughout Victorian England.” Nearly 200 years after their publication, the impact of the Brontës’ work and characters continues to reverberate, and will continue to do so for centuries to come. Having said that, are you a Jane Eyre or a Helen Huntingdon? A Catherine Earnshaw or an Agnes Grey? Circumstances aside, you are bound to resemble one of them. Take this quiz and find out which Brontë heroine you are!
