# Villette

Villette (/viːˈlɛt/) is a novel by Charlotte Brontë, published in 1853. After an unspecified family disaster, protagonist Lucy Snowe travels to the fictional city of Villette to teach at an all-girls school where she is unwillingly pulled into both adventure and romance. The novel is celebrated not so much for its plot as its acute tracing of Lucy's psychology, particularly Brontë's use of Gothic doubling to represent externally what her protagonist is suffering internally.

She is fond of reading and is a highly cultivated French scholar. Observation and travel have refined her taste in both art and literature. While the Vice-President and Mrs. Morton made Washington their home, the residence on Scott Circle dispensed a cordial hospitalitv during the social season. The house was perfect in all its appointments and was always thronged with visitors on reception days.

Vice-President and Mrs. Morton are the first to fill that place as house-holders in Washington since Mr. Colfax's regime.

Her greeting to even the humblest of strangers crossing her threshold is always as gracious as to the most elegant of her visitors, and therein lies the secret of her popularity, her kindness of heart and gentleness of manner to all.

Her successes brought her many invitations from publishers to furnish them books, and she was so busy with her novels that her poetical ambitions, which were her chief ones, were temporarily held in check.
