    It is fair to assume that none of Charlotte's own family read the letters to Heger during her lifetime, though her father and A. B. Nicholls were to read Mrs Gaskell's excerpts from them in the Life. But they could read Villette before her death and The Professor after it; and one wonders what they made of the master-pupil relationship in those novels - one ending in brief bliss destroyed by the dividing sea, and the other in the wish-fulfilment of perfect marriage.
