Query: Second rate biography of an invisible character

The only reason I read this book was because I happen to be studying English at uni. Jean Rhys is definitely not Charlotte Bronte and should have left the character of Bertha Mason alone.I enjoyed "Jane Eyre", but this book was sub-standard at best. The author even had the effrontery of changing the character's name. Okay, so Edward Rochester is not the best person in "Jane Eyre", but he does not deserve to be portrayed as a manipulative mongrel in this novel. If he truly was that bad, then Miss Eyre is hardly a good judge of character.
