The Bronte Sisters: Three Novels: Jane Eyre; Wuthering Heights; And Agnes Grey (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

by Anne Brontë, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë, et al.

Book Overview

The most cherished novels from England's talented sisters, all in one gorgeously packaged volume The Bronte family was a literary phenomenon unequalled before or since. Both Charlotte's Jane Eyre and Emily's Wuthering Heights have won lofty places in the pantheon and stirred the romantic sensibilities of generations of readers. For the first time ever, Penguin Classics unites these two enduring favorites with the lesser known but no less powerful work by their youngest sister, Anne. Drawn from Anne's own experiences as a governess, Agnes Grey offers a compelling view of Victorian chauvinism and materialism. Its inclusion makes The Bronte Sisters a must-have volume for anyone fascinated by this singularly talented family.
