Gaskell described her first meeting with Charlotte in a letter, writing:
>She is underdeveloped, thin and more than half a head shorter than I ... [with] a reddish face, large mouth and many teeth gone; altogether plain.
Elizabeth Gaskell was 5'1" btw

possibly half-goblin? moor goblins still extant in 1810s. several recorded cases of interbreeding w/ human women in yorkshire area. plus supernatural artistic talent is a known goblin trait. needs further investigation.

You may be on to something. Remember the passage from Jane Eyre, where Rochester first interviews Jane:


~


“You have been resident in my house three months?”

“Yes, sir.”

“And you came from—?”

“From Lowood school, in ——shire.”

“Ah! a charitable concern. How long were you there?”

“Eight years.”

“Eight years! you must be tenacious of life. I thought half the time in such a place would have done up any constitution! No wonder you have rather the look of another world. I marvelled where you had got that sort of face. When you came on me in Hay Lane last night, I thought unaccountably of fairy tales, and had half a mind to demand whether you had bewitched my horse: I am not sure yet. Who are your parents?”

“I have none.”

“Nor ever had, I suppose: do you remember them?”

“No.”

“I thought not. And so you were waiting for your people when you sat on that stile?”

“For whom, sir?”

“For the men in green: it was a proper moonlight evening for them. Did I break through one of your rings, that you spread that damned ice on the causeway?”

I shook my head. “The men in green all forsook England a hundred years ago,” said I, speaking as seriously as he had done. “And not even in Hay Lane, or the fields about it, could you find a trace of them. I don’t think either summer or harvest, or winter moon, will ever shine on their revels more.”

Jane is not entirely Charlotte of course but she’s not entirely not, either. What was C. trying to tell us?

Book clubs, summer book festivals, lit cafes.

>>25317226
I don't go to those. Neither would her

>>25317223
You will never meet her and that's a good thing. She is pure and you would just taint her with your foul incelness.

Who the fuck cares?

>>25316465
I'm halfway through my first read through and overall it feels like a better Jane Eyre but fuck me Charlotte can't help but fill her plots with contrived bs. Truly the worst girl survived
>>25317223
Try wandering around randomly in the woods. Being a dog would also help
