Jane Eyre also made the Guardian's top 10 lists of "outsider books" and "romantic fiction;" it appears on Esther Freud's top ten list of love stories and Jessica Duchen's top ten list of literary Gypsies, and on John Mullan's lists of ten of the best weddings in literature, ten of the best pianos in literature, ten of the best breakfasts in literature, and ten of the best smokes in fiction.
