Passionate literary geniuses - their own story...
The authors of such literary classics as Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and Agnes Grey, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë were extraordinary not just because they were successful female writers in Victorian England, but because they were from the same family. Growing up, all three sisters were significantly influenced by each other's writing, but perhaps most importantly by their troubled brother, Branwell.
The Brontë Family is a fascinating examination into the unconventional lives of each sibling, offering an insight into the minds of the gifted authors whose passionate tales continue to enthral readers today.
