- as a governess. Working for the Bloomfields, her enthusiasm is soon dampened by isolation & the cruelty of the children in her charge. Agnes hopes for better in her second job, but when the scheming elder daughter Rosalie makes designs on Agnes`s new friend, the kind curate Mr Weston, she feels herself silenced & sidelined. Becoming a governess is one thing, becoming invisible is quite another.
