This handsome leather-bound edition includes the most acclaimed novels of each of the Brontë sisters: Charlotte’s , Emily’s , and Anne’s . Originally published under male pseudonyms in the 1840s, these three novels later helped give rise to the feminist literary movement of the late nineteenth century, in which women’s perspectives became more accepted by the mainstream reading public. A scholarly introduction provides an overview of the sisters’ childhood in northern England, their literary influences, and their enduring legacy.
