Gilbert Markham is fascinated by Helen Graham, the beautiful and
enigmatic woman who has recently moved into Wildfell Hall. He is
swift to befriend her, but when local gossip calls Helen's
character and behaviour into question, Gilbert begins to repent of
his congeniality. It is only when Helen presents Gilbert with her
diary and instructs him to read it that the shocking truth about
the marriage she has escaped from becomes clear. An instant
success, the first edition of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall sold out
in weeks, yet was mired in controversy for what many contemporary
critics viewed as its shocking subject matter and fierce defence of
women's rights.
