Selected Works of the Bronte Sisters


Book Description

The literary masterpieces of the three Brontë sisters in one volume: Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This handsome leather-bound edition includes the most acclaimed novels of each of the Brontë sisters: Charlotte’s Jane Eyre, Emily’s Wuthering Heights, and Anne’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Originally published under male pseudonyms in the 1840s, these three novels later helped give rise to the feminist literary movement of the late nineteenth century, in which women’s perspectives became more accepted by the mainstream reading public. A scholarly introduction provides an overview of the sisters’ childhood in northern England, their literary influences, and their enduring legacy.







The Complete Works of Charlotte Brontë and Her Sisters


Book Description

The Brontë sisters are some of the most famous women in literature. Each wrote at least one novel that would go on to become a classic and to be read by women everywhere throughout history. Charlotte Brontë, the eldest of the three Brontë sisters, wrote multiple novels that are still ranked among the most cherished books in literature. Shirley, the novel completed after Jane Eyre, was written during a period of immense turmoil in Charlotte's life. These personal dramas affected both the feel and the outcome of the novel. Set around the War of 1812, Shirley is a glimpse of the industrial unrest in Britain. This novel also examines the gender expectations of women in society. While in other books Charlotte chooses a first person narrator, Shirley stands out for its use of a third person omniscient narrator who gives more voice to the struggles of all individuals during this period of time. Perhaps one of the most intriguing elements of this story is the friendship between Shirley and Caroline which gives the reader insight into the relationship that Charlotte had with her sisters. Another strength of this novel is Charlotte's use of minor characters who each bring their own unique personalities into the story and ripen it with entertainment. Charlotte's master craft of writing engaging characters and dramatic events make all of her novels enchanting. Her ability to dissect societal issues, while also creating an appealing story line makes her novels intriguing and timeless. It's no surprise that these works have become literary classics. Take a moment to read these amazing works that have stood against the test of time and proven themselves worthy.
