The story both of the real world of the Brontes at Haworth
Parsonage, their home on the edge of the lonely Yorkshire moors,
and of the imaginary worlds they spun for themselves in their
novels and poetry.Wherever possible, their story is told using
their own words - the letters they wrote to each other, Emily and
Anne's secret diaries, and Charlotte's exchanges with luminaries of
literary England - or those closest to them, such as their brother
Branwell, their father Patrick Bronte, and their novelist friend
Mrs Gaskell. The Brontes sketched and painted their worlds too, in
delicate ink washes and watercolours of family and friends, animals
and the English moors. These pictures illuminate the text as do the
tiny drawings the Bronte children made to illustrate their
imaginary worlds. In addition, there are facsimiles of their
letters and diaries, paintings by artists of the day, and pictures
of household life. This beautifully illustrated book offers a
unique and privileged view of the real lives of three women,
writers and sisters.
