Jane Eyre

A Sweary Classics Adaptation

De: Sweary Classics

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Orphan. Governess. Badass. Also, her boss is hiding a wife in the attic.

What's a Sweary Classic? The complete original story—same plot, same characters, same emotional devastation—just translated into modern, hilarious, sweary language that doesn't require a literature degree to understand. Think: all the Gothic romance, zero Victorian torture.

Jane Eyre has had a sh*t life. Her aunt hates her, her cousins bully her, and she survives a boarding school that’s basically a tuberculosis factory. But Jane isn't a victim—she's a survivor with a spine of steel who refuses to let anyone treat her like garbage.

She lands a job at Thornfield Hall working for Mr. Rochester, a moody, brooding rich guy who clearly has more baggage than a transatlantic flight. Against all odds (and common sense), they fall for each other. But strange things are happening at Thornfield: maniacal laughter in the halls, fires starting in bedrooms, and a secret on the third floor that Rochester is desperate to keep hidden.

The stakes? Jane finally has a shot at happiness, but it comes with a massive catch. When the truth comes out (and it’s a doozy), Jane has to choose: compromise her self-respect for the man she loves, or walk away into poverty and homelessness to keep her soul intact. Spoiler: Jane doesn't compromise.

If you love heroines who stand up for themselves no matter the cost, gothic mysteries that keep you guessing, and romance that’s equal parts passion and red flags—this sweary retelling will have you cheering (and screaming) at the page.
