Bronte Sisters, The Penguin
Although these novels differ in style and objective, they are unified by a remarkable fusion of emotional intensity, passionately held beliefs and creative power. In The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Anne Bronté wrote the first fully sustained feminist novel with her story of the wronged wife. One of the most unforgettable love stories ever written, Jane Eyre spoke out— and still speaks out — for women struggling for personal autonomy and sexual fulfilment in a hostile society. In Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte achieved a unique portrayal of the irresistible forces of sexual passion and of nature, straining against the physical confines of the world.
