The Brontë sisters are among the most beloved writers of all time, best
known for their classic nineteenth-century novels Jane Eyre
(Charlotte), Wuthering Heights (Emily), and Agnes Grey (Anne). In
this sometimes heartbreaking young adult biography, Catherine Reef
explores the turbulent lives of these literary siblings and the
oppressive times in which they lived. Brontë fans will also revel in the
insights into their favorite novels, the plethora of poetry, and the
outstanding collection of more than sixty black-and-white archival
images. A powerful testimony to the life of the mind. (Endnotes,
