'Agnes Grey', published in 1847, gained recognition only after her death and is now considered a classic of English literature. The novel is renowned for its profound psychological insights and realistic style, exploring the position of women in society and moral dilemmas. more

“Breathe in, breath out. Oxygen is carcinogenic and likely puts a limit on our life span. It would be unwise though, to try to extend life by not breathing at all. Which of us doesn't do it?

It is so hard.”
