The book: Shirley is a novel by Charlotte Brontë, originally published in 1849. It was her second novel after Jane Eyre. Set against the backdrop of the industrial depression, it explores social and gender issues of the time. This edition, published by Milner and Company, is a later reprint, likely from the late 19th century. The book remains a powerful social commentary, with themes that resonate today.
