What is the odd one out and why: Agnes Grey, Lily Hart, Shirley or Villette?

Agnes Grey is the easiest of the group to single out in that she is the title character in a book by Anne Bronte while all of the others are title characters by Charlotte Bronte. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnes_Grey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte_Bront%C3%AB#Novels http://mulibraries.missouri.edu/specialcollections/Exhibits/brontestories.htm One could also single Lily Hart as the odd one out in that she does not appear in a solely eponymously named novel by one of the Brontes but instead in a story so named.

I would say that Villette is the odd one out in that it is a city in the book "Vilette", while the others are all characters. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnes_Grey http://mulibraries.missouri.edu/specialcollections/Exhibits/brontestories.htm http://www.amazon.com/Shirley-Oxford-Worlds-Classics-Charlotte/dp/0192833782 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villette_%28novel%29 May 06 08, 5:55 PM
