Set in Brussels in 1843, Confession, is the true-life account of Charlotte Bronte's blossoming love affair with Monsieur Constantin Heger. Reminiscent of 'Girl With A Pearl Earring', the story begins when Charlotte and her sister, Emily, arrive in Brussels to study French at the Pensionat Heger. Soon Charlotte is falling under the spell of her new French tutor - Constantin Heger who is married to the school's headmistress Madame Zoe Heger. Monsieur Heger inspires Charlotte in her writing and becomes the template for her later portrayal of the romantic hero, Mr Rochester, in Charlotte's most famous novel, 'Jane Eyre'. Confession uses many of Charlotte Bronte's own letters to her sisters and friends as well as excerpts from her other writings to show how one of English literatures greatest novelists first fell in love and how this passion was eventually channelled into two of the most brilliant love stories ('Jane Eyre' and 'Villette') in the English language.
