The essence of the Brontës : a compilation with essays

Spark, Muriel, 1918-20062014
Books, Manuscripts
'The Essence of the Brontës' brings together Muriel Spark's writings on the Brontë sisters, including a selection of their letters and a selection of Emily Brontë's poems. Perceptively but unsentimentally, Spark considers the Brontës' lives and works, including their generally disastrous attempts at teaching, and reflects on her own fascination, as a writer and a reader, with Emily Brontë and with 'the immortal Wuthering Heights and its nightmare hero'.
