Le Parisien (France) has an article on the moving funeral of Dominique Bernard, the teacher killed by a former pupil in a jihadist attack.
Lilou, 16 ans, qui a eu « le privilège » de l’avoir comme enseignant en 4e, le trouvait de bon conseil en matière de « bouquins ». « Le seul livre que j’ai aimé au collège, c’est grâce à lui. C’était le roman Jane Eyre de Charlotte Brontë », retient-elle. (Vincent Mongaillard) (Translation)
According to Byrdie, 'Everyone Is Dressing Like a Hot-Girl Librarian This Fall, and We Kind of Love It'.
Bella Hadid, street style queen extraordinaire, has been embracing elements of the library look for awhile now, what with her love of unconventional layering and taking typically “frumpy” pieces and giving them new life. Devon Lee Carlson has also put her spin on the aesthetic with skinny cat eye glasses, cozy wool sweaters and ballerina flats, looking as though she just left the Classics section with some Brontë books in hand.

Libreriamo (Italy) on the worst love advice from classic novels.
Jane Eyre di Charlotte Brontë
In “Jane Eyre”, il personaggio di Edward Rochester si porta dietro una vita intera di cattive – pessime – decisioni, compresa quella di rinchiudere la moglie pazza e piromane in soffitta. Prosegue nel suo percorso di decisioni discutibili quando cerca di indurre la protagonista Jane Eyre a un matrimonio “bigamo” (a di lei insaputa, per giunta).
Eppure, nel finale del romanzo, la ragazza torna da lui a braccia aperte, dimentica dei sotterfugi, delle menzogne e delle scelte non propriamente inattaccabili di Rochester nel corso della sua vita. E fa niente se non ha più un castello perché la moglie pazza gli ha dato fuoco e nell’incendio Rochester è rimasto cieco e mutilato. Un finale molto romantico, ma del tutto improbabile. Una ragazza può davvero dimenticare tutto questo? (Translation)
Jane Eyre is one of 25 books you must read in your lifetime according to El placer de la lectura (Spain).
14.- “Jane Eyre” de Charlotte Brontë
Esta novela histórica que redefinió la conciencia narrativa se centra en la homónima Jane Eyre, una huérfana nacida en la Inglaterra de 1800. A medida que Jane crece, toma su destino en sus propias manos, lo que se vuelve particularmente conmovedor cuando se encuentra con el melancólico Sr. Rochester en Thornfield Hall. (Translation)
In a video interview for El Español (Spain) writer Ángeles Caso was seen wearing a Brontë t-shirt. La Silla Rota (Mexico) mentions the Brontës as examples of women writers. CinePremiere (Mexico) mentions that Stanley Kubrick and novelist/screenwriter Diane Johnson discussed both Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre prior to filming The Shining.
