Total copies: 1
The Brontes' letters give unique insight into the characters of the family, encompassing the whole range of emotions and effectively dispelling the myth that all was doom and gloom in the Bronte household. In this carefully chosen selection of their letters, diaries and autobiographical fragments, we hear the authentic voices of the three novelists, as well as their brother Bramwell and father, the Reverend Patrick Bronte. The collection follows their progress from exuberant childhood to years of hardship, followed by immense literary success and then tragic later years.
