The Tenant of Wildfell Hall

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a novel by Anne Brontë about a woman who leaves her abusive, dissolute husband and supports herself and her young son. Originally published around 1848, it challenged prevailing morals of the time, and one critic pronounced it "utterly unfit to be put into the hands of girls".
