Fiction, Historical fiction
The ultimate family story, told by one of the most acclaimed historical novelists writing today.
Charlotte. Emily. Anne. The Bronte sisters - the drama, the passion, and a story that lives for ever...
Once upon a time there were three sisters, bound by love and suffering, growing up in wild isolation in a lonely house on the moor. Their story will astonish you: their passionate, dangerous closeness; their struggle against the world; their determination to rise above the fates of their parents and their other lost sisters, to become more than the world ever thought they could be. You don t know their story, but you think they do. They were the Brontes.
