3. Their stories attracted attention for their passion and originality immediately following their publication. Charlotte's Jane Eyre was the first to know success, while Emily's Wuthering Heights, Anne's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall and other works were accepted as masterpieces of literature after their deaths.

Außerdem fühle ich mich verraten: das "ë" in "Brontë" wird, wie ich gerade eben nachgeschaut habe, eigentlich wie ein "i" ausgesprochen, es sind die "Bronti"-Schwestern.
Ich weigere mich das zu glauben.

All the ' books are now published under their real names, not the men's names they assumed in order to get published in the early 19th century.

Why are Mary Anne Evans' books still published under the name ?

Absolutely stunning photograph of an English village: Haworth in West Yorkshire.

This is the real England that many people don't see or think of, since big cities like London are more often in the spotlight.

This village is also where the Brontë sisters, classic English literary greats from the nineteenth century, wrote most of their novels.

Truly a gem in West Yorkshire! Beautiful. 😍

tonight's read: 's characterization skills sometimes get a bad rap. but it's hard to beat her descriptions of the devious busybody Mme Beck, spymistress of the all-girls school in Villette:

'[A] delicious little ravelled plot lay tempting her to disentanglement; and in the midst, folded round and round in cobwebs, had she not secured 'Meess Lucie', clumsily involved, like the foolish fly she was?'

tonight's read: the most Bronte-ish phrase i've ever seen in my life--'a flash of lightning BLAZED BROAD over salon and boudoir'

the Goth sank so deep into my soul that i grew a black wig, eyeliner, & whalebone corset just reading it
