The Brontë Family: Passionate Literary Geniuses

Karen Kenyon
3.85/5 (61 ratings)
Passionate literary geniuses - their own story...

The authors of such literary classics as Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and Agnes Grey, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë were extraordinary not only because they were successful female writers in Victorian England, but also because they were sisters.

Growing up, all three sisters’ writings were significantly influenced by each other, but perhaps most importantly by their troubled brother, Branwell.

This fascinating account of each sister’s unconventional life, astounding talent, and tragic death draws readers into the minds of the gifted authors whose passionate tales have enthralled readers for more than a century and whose voices still resonate with modern readers.

Praise for The Brontë Family...
'In Kenyon's hands, the sisters come alive individually and as a family'- Leigh Fenly, The San Diego Union-Tribune

'An extraordinary biography about an extraordinary family' - Jane Halsall, The Shy Librarian
