Lots of Interesting Info!

This book provides a lot of interesting information regarding Emily Bronte's life. In particular, it deals with how her experiences affected her writing, specifically her novel Wuthering Heights. At times it was a little difficult to read, and got somewhat dry, but overall gave a lot of insight into the origins of this fascinating author's short career. If you're looking for information on Emily's life and writing that will highlight connections between the two, this book will definitely help!
