Reseña del editor:
Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte are three of the most remarkable novelists and poets of the ninetieth century. Jack Hewer illustrates this complete treasury with landscape drawings and the remainder of the illustrations are by B. S. Grieg. Charlotte was the most prolific of the sisters and best known for Jane Eyre. Anne Bronte was the author of Anges Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. And Emily Bronte's crowning achievement is Wuthering Heights. Readers will delight in the comprehensive packaging of these classics.
Biografía del autor:
Charlotte Bronte (1816-55), Emily (1818-48) and Anne (1820-49) were daughters of the Reverend Patrick Bronte, a Church of England clergyman born in Northern Ireland. They had two other sisters, Maria and Elizabeth, and a brother, Branwell. Their mother died in 1821. Educated largely by their father's library at Haworth parsonage, the sisters worked as governesses and teachers, Charlotte spending some time in Brussels, accompanied on occasion by Emily. They published their books under the pseudonyms Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell, and did not reveal their true identities until July 1848. Emily died of tuberculosis, followed by Anne eight months later. Charlotte began to move in literary circles, meeting Thackeray, Harriet Martineau and her future biographer Elizabeth Gaskell. In 1854 she married her father's curate, but died nine months later in early pregnancy.Emily Jane Bronte was an English novelist and poet, best remembered for her only novel, Wuthering Heights, now considered a classic of English literature.
