#17 Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys

I'm not sure how I feel about this one. It's the story of Bertha: the crazy lady that Mr. Rochester was "fooled" into marrying. It's not a very well written story in my opinion. If you haven't read Jane Eyre, this one wouldn't have any significance to you at all. Furthermore, names were almost never mentioned throughout the story, so it was even difficult for me to follow. I've only read Jane Eyre more times than I can remember.

It was interesting to see what someone thought happened to Bertha and Mr. Rochester. End of story.
