I know this is a bit of a long shot, because no one has seemingly heard of this novel, but I thought I'd post about it anyway.
Villette is hands-down one of my favorite books. Every time I read it, I enjoy it more and more. I think the biggest draw for me is how similar I find I am to Lucy. Almost everything she discusses I agree with; there have been times where I've read something that's made me say, "That's what I was thinking!" Her personality, thought process, everything--they parallel mine exactly.
The only part I don't like is the ambiguity of the ending. I grew quite attached to Monsieur Paul Emanuel. :\
So. Have you read this novel, and what were your thoughts?
