This paper deals with the life of Lucy Snowe in Villette: her restricted independent process and a cry of the soul. It is said that the ending of Villette is ambiguous. This novel suggests compromise with real life; Lucy Snowe had to accept reality, suffering from her solitude. In the patriarchical society, women had to make a choice whether they should settle down in home or be groping for independence throughout their lives.
