World Within - The Brontes at Haworth
World Within - The Brontes at Haworth | Juliet Gardiner
2 posts | 1 read | 6 to read
One of a series which also includes My Dear Cassandra (featuring the correspondence of Jane Austen) and Paper Darts (Virginia Woolf), this book maps both the real world of the Brontes at Haworth Parsonage, high up on the Yorkshire moors, and the worlds they spun for themselves in their writing and story-telling. Wherever possible it uses the words of Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte, their brother Branwell and their stern father, the Reverend Patrick Bronte, which are found in their letters to each other, the secret diary of Emily and Anne, and the correspondence between the Brontes as writers, and literary London. These are supplemented by the observations of those few people, such as Mrs Gaskell, who knew them and their works of poetry and fiction.

In the local book shop the other day and I came across this book I thought all you ladies would be interested. I have never been a big fan of the #Brontes sister's but I know a lot of you are.
Life, Letter's, diaries and writing.

LeahBergen @tricours No, I don't have that one but now I need to get a copy! I have another one by the same author, called The Bronte Yearbook (not in the Litsy database). It has a different excerpt of Bronte writing for each day of the year. 8y
