Description
The Brontës' earliest writings offer a unique glimpse into their collaborative creative process. In these imaginative stories, poems, and plays, they invented fantastical worlds, characters, and histories that reflect their youthful experimentation with literature. This collection brings together the works of Charlotte, Emily, Anne, and Branwell for the first time, providing insight into the rich imaginative lives of the Brontë sisters. The Introduction explores the tension between their maturing authorship and creative freedom, while the edition also includes valuable autobiographical sources such as Charlotte's Roe Head Journal and Emily and Anne's Diary Papers. Oxford World's Classics has made this selection available, reflecting its commitment to scholarship and providing a wealth of features including expert introductions, helpful notes, and up-to-date bibliographies.
