About this listen
In the first episode of Women Get Lit, I begin the series with my friend and university student Amalie.
Amalie studies English with Creative Writing in London. She is an incredibly talented writer and is deeply fascinated with Modernist and Nordic literature.
In today's episode we discuss Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", zooming into the complicated power dynamic between Jane and Mr Rochester. We delve into Bronte's representation of marriage and what position it places women in (within both literature, society, and our own understanding of writing complex characters). We debate who and what the mad woman in the attack, Bertha, represents and how she fits into our understanding of women.
Amalie also shares her experience as a writer, delving into the depths of writing process, style and restrictions.
