The Brontës

New post: Why you should love Anne Brontë.

It’s awful to find this talent that time was unable to nurture. Her prose should have shattered the world. Now, at the end of 2011, she is fantastic, her prose is strong and defiant. Back then, one hundred and sixty three years ago (one hundred and sixty four in December), it was surely intimidating, defiant, formidable, and so, so very awful. Everything art should be. She questioned and challenged the mores of her time. She is, and was, magnificent and daring.[more]
