Produktbeschreibung

'Heartbreaking ... Fascinating ... Unbearably poignant.' - Daily Mail 'Dramatic ... Sensational ... Closely researched and compulsively readable.' - The Lady 'Meticulously researched, erudite and utterly engaging ... Magnificent.' - Karen Powell, author of Fifteen Wild Decembers Novelist, sister, celebrity, wife, daughter: Charlotte Brontë played many roles. As the beloved author of Jane Eyre, she is one of the most radical talents of the nineteenth century. And one of the most mysterious. Based entirely on rarely seen private letters, this radical and moving biography sheds new light on the dramatic events of Brontë's turbulent last years of grief, fulfilment and tragedy - and exposes the astonishing media scandal that followed her early death, when her friends and family battled to control how history would remember her.
