Anne Brontė's first novel Agnes Grey paints a vivid picture of the Victorian era. Based on Brontė's own experiences, the novel displays an astounding maturity in describing true feelings and sentiments of a young governess. The novel is simple, and the characters are true to life. Brontė has explicitly described the employers' insensitive treatment of employees and their moral emptiness.

Anne Brontė was the youngest of the prolific Brontė family. She published under the pen name Acton Bell. Desiring not to be a financial hardship for her father, Anne sought independence and worked as a governess. She continued to write in her spare time, as she and her two sisters Charlotte and Emily had done since childhood. Her first novel, Agnes Grey, was published within a month of Charlotte's novel Jane Eyre and was bound in three volumes with Emily's novel Wuthering Heights.
