For all our generational and cultural differences, certain values and struggles still ring true. They strike a resonant chord that echoes into the present, even if our current social consciousness claims to have moved on from such archaic ideas. When Jane Eyre suppresses her passion to preserve her integrity, we can’t help but marvel at her strength of character — even as we live in a culture that would probably criticize her for “caving” to the oppressive social constructs of her day.

According to
Express, Haworth is 'The pretty little UK village drenched in history that you should visit before December'.
Haworth, in Yorkshire is known for its literary history - the village was home to the Brontë sisters who produced several famous novels such as Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights.
After a video by Tik Tik [sic] user @amyloves.xo in which she described Haworth as “a perfect autumnal day out in October" went viral, many are flocking to the village to view just how special it is for themselves.
The village is currently decorated for autumn - and tourists who want to experience this atmosphere will need to head to Haworth before winter comes.
If you decide to take a trip, start off by visiting Main Street where there are a range of independent cafes, old fashioned sweet shops and other boutique stores. As you walk along the cobbled stress, you’ll be able to see the rolling green hills which surround the area. [...]
While you’re in the area, you should also visit the Brontë Parsonage Museum, one of Haworth's most popular tourist attractions.
One visitor on Tripadvisor said: “We visited this great little museum in quaint Haworth. Wonderfully laid out original parsonage where the famous Brontë family lived. It cleverly takes you through the property and the story of the talented Brontë family, very informative, inspirational and also very sad. The staff are friendly and helpful. It really is worth a stop here if you are in the area.” (Alycia McNamara)
