Synopsis

Demonstrating the remarkable range of their powers, this volume of three works by the Brontė sisters offers readers the opportunity to witness their unique combination of realism and romance which places these novels among the greatest works of nineteenth century literature. Charlotte Brontė's Jane Eyre met immediate success when it was first published in 1847 and remains a much-loved classic. Considered by the public to be rough and strange when it was originally published, Emily Brontė's only novel Wuthering Heights has become one the most popular of all English novels. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Anne Brontė's second novel, was a dramatic and courageous challenge to the conventions supposedly upheld by Victorian society. It has since become a classic, compelling in its imaginative power, the realism and range of its dialogue, and its psychological insight into the characters involved in a marital battle.
