It’s important to bear this in mind when you decide to read the Brontës. It’s like reading Dicken’s and expecting him to be Hemingway.Įach author has a distinct style if Charlotte’s novels are a stiff wind and Emily’s one novel, Wuthering Heights, is a thunderstorm, Anne’s might be described as an unrelenting breeze. I acknowledge that a mistake many readers make is to expect all three sisters to write the same way. Or at least, it will offer various Bronte reading plans that give you an opportunity to form your own opinion.įor the sake of this article, I have decided to group together the sisters as The Brontës because their collective bibliography makes for good reading. Fans tend to favour either Anne, Emily or Charlotte and will fiercely defend their superiority over the others. Regarding the question of where to start with the Brontës, opinions differ wildly.
