HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved essential classics. 'Cheerfulness it would appear is a matter which depends fully as much on the state of things within as on the state of things without and around us.' Considered one of her less well-known novels Shirley is Charlotte Bronte's only historical work set during the Napoleonic Wars. Wealthy and independent Shirley is very different from her friend Caroline who has few prospects and is dependent on her uncle. Struggling mill owner Robert Moore considers marriage to the monied Shirley in order to secure his financial future; however it is Caroline who he loves while Shirley has fallen for Robert's brother an impoverished tutor who is deemed an unsuitable match for her. Unsentimental yet unflinching in her honest portrayal of love class conflict and identity Bronte uses the backdrop of her beloved Yorkshire to play out the tensions and dramas of a society facing social and industrial upheaval.

Supermarket giants like Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Morrisons stand out as primary Shirley stockists, not only for groceries but also for a vast range of household essentials, clothing, and electronics, benefiting from their extensive store networks and dominant online delivery services. Beyond food, established high street names such as John Lewis remain incredibly popular for higher-end homewares, fashion, and technology, revered for their quality and customer service.
