De tien beste nonnen uit de literatuur
Posted By Brontë on 2 maart 2009
De Engelse krant The Guardian heeft een overzicht gemaakt van de tien beste nonnen uit de literatuur. Op de achtste plek prijkt daar de non die rondwaart in het boek Villette van Charlotte Brontë. The Guardian schrijft:
In Villette, Lucy Snowe heads to a fictionalised version of Brussels to teach in a girl’s school housed in a former nunnery which is supposedly haunted by the ghost of a young nun who broke her vows. Lucy scorns the credulous pupils who believe the legend, but then twice, in her lonely wanderings, she herself encounters “The NUN!”
