Though she is writing a marriage plot novel, Brontë takes the liberty of depicting Jane as a person beginning the novel with a child who has significant events, other than her marriage, in her life. The reader is made aware, as Jane herself knows, that she is much more than a young woman on the marriage market.
Even after her romantic interactions with the "hero," Jane leaves for several chapters showing Brontë's independence from the expected plot her society has given her. The very structure of this novel is so rich in rebellion that it is an ideal jumping off point.
