Three Novels by the Bronte Sisters

by Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë, Anne Bront

Overview

The Brontë family was an unparalleled literary phenomenon. Both Charlotte's JANE EYRE and Emily's WUTHERING HEIGHTS stirred the romantic sensibilities of generations of readers. Coyote Canyon Press unites these two enduring favorites with the lesser known work of their youngest sister, Anne, whose novel, AGNES GREY, was drawn from her experiences as a governess and offers a compelling view of Victorian society and materialism. Its inclusion makes THREE NOVELS BY THE BRONTË SISTERS a must-have volume for anyone enamored with this singularly talented family.

About the Author

Charlotte Brontë (1816-1855), English writer noted for her novel Jane Eyre (1847), sister of Anne Brontë and Emily Brontë. The three sisters are almost as famous for their short, tragic lives as for their novels. The collection of poems, Poems By Currer, Ellis And Acton Bell (1846), which Charlotte wrote with her sisters, sold only two copies. Her novel The Professor never found a publisher during her lifetime. Undeterred by this rejection, Charlotte began Jane Eyre, which appeared in 1847 and became an immediate success. Jane Eyre was followed by Shirley (1848) and Vilette (1853).
