and works of the Brontë family.

 About This Site I am an avid Brontë fan and Brontë Society Member, and I have created this site as a catch-all for everything Brontëana. I am currently putting info on here about their lives, loves, artworks, literary careers, schooling, and especially the adaptations of their novels and lives. If you would like to contribute to the site, please apply to be a writer over on the right hand side, or just leave a comment at the bottom of any page.

Note: I am reading "Sunset Song" by Lewis Grassic Gibbon. The mother says to her daughter, " Oh, Chris, my lass, there are better things than your books or studies or loving or bedding, there's the countryside your own, you its, in the days when you're neither bairn nor woman".
Emily, the moors, her own and she, theirs.........the heath and the cliff.......the eternal rocks, the bones of life itself. |

So we have seen it..........Are we thrilled, engaged, intrigued? Did chills go up our spines? Did the hairs stand up on the back of our necks? Did we FEEL? Did we feel the love, the agony, the suffering, the passion, the hatred, the confusion? Did the characters live, act for themselves and come alive? Was Emily proud?
My answers to all of these and more is NO NO NO. |
