What hold do the Brontë sister’s seem to have over some of us that we just cannot seem to get enough of their stories or lives? Don’t you wish sometimes there was more of their angst filled love stories? Maybe there were at one time, but they are now lost to us. Aren’t we glad there are authors like Denise Giardina to help us get our fix!
This gentle read is a fictional biography of the Brontë siblings which solidly follows with what is known of the life and writings of this family. If you love books written by the Brontë sister’s you will enjoy seeing how Giardina shows us the correlation between their real lives and what they wrote, but this is not the only reason to read this book. Giardina’s portrayal of mid 19th century
Easy Sunday afternoon read.
