Jane Eyre is still read for a countless number of reasons. One of those reasons being because it captures your attention. The book has a very good story line. Once I actually started to read it I couldn't put it down. It didn't necessarily have a voice like it was written in the 1800's which is why I think people still read it. The book first captivates the reader in the very beginning when Jane is being smacked by her cousin John. (Chapter 1, pg 10) And keeps you interested with the abuse of her Aunt, you automatically feel bad for this poor little girl and want to know what happens.
A second reason Jane Eyre is still read is because it a love story. Everyone loves a romantic story and the one of Mr. Rochester and Jane keep you wanting to read more. They have such a deep, true love, which gives you hope that such love is still possible even today . From this novel we can learn that inequality is just an obstacle in life. Jane overcame it, and so can anyone today. You aren't FORCED to do anything just because of your position in life. Jane Eyre would teach those that didn't already know that this .
