Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë were not prolific novelists, but those that they did write have become some of the best-loved works in English literature. Collected together here are six titles, beautifully bound, that make the perfect introduction to the sisters' work. They include: Jane Eyre (448pp); Agnes Grey (192pp); Villette (480pp); Wuthering Heights (272pp); The Professor (208pp) and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (432pp). Moving from the wilds of Yorkshire to small-town France, these are tales of passion and romance.

Biografía del autor

Charlotte Bronte (1816-1855) was the eldest of the three Bronte sisters. In addition to Jane Eyre (1847), Charlotte also wrote The Professor (1857) and Villette (1853). She died in 1855 after suffering complications during pregnancy.

Anne Bronte (1820-1849) was the youngest of the Bronte sisters. Her first novel, Agnes Grey (1847) was inspired by five years spent working as a governess, and proved itself a commercial success. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Anne's second and final novel, was published the following summer in 1848. Anne died shortly after while convalescing from tuberculosis at Scarborough.

Emily Bronte (1818-1848) was the most accomplished yet least prolific of the three literary Bronte sisters. Today Wuthering Heights (1847) is recognized as perhaps the most sophisticated novel of the Gothic genre.

The three sisters lived with their father and brother at the parsonage in Haworth in Yorkshire. Between them, they produced some of English literature's greatest novels.
