About this listen

Since the 19th century Charlotte, Anne, and Emily Bronte have all played their part in captivating hearts and minds with their passionate novels as well as touching reader’s souls with their moving poetry. Even their brother Branwell Bronte and father Patrick Bronte enjoyed a measure of success with their verses.

  • Father Patrick, mother Maria, the births of the Bronte children.
  • The move to Haworth, early deaths and schooling.
  • Missing home, the heath and learning to be governesses.

Very interesting overview

This short summary of their lives gives a good idea of what formed and moved them. I wish it was much longer, but of course I knew the length limitations when I bought it.
