Just finished rereading Charlotte Brontë's Villette, & this time round, its ending strikes me as one of the most romantic ever, maybe b/c I inhabit an age of hiring freezes & academic precarity. M. Paul loves Lucy Snowe, & to demonstrate it, he gives her a classroom in which to teach. Swoon! #19thc
