Summary:
A beautifully imagined tale of the Bronte sisters and the writing ofJane Eyre. The year is 1846. In a cold parsonage on the gloomy
Yorkshire moors, a family seems cursed with disaster. A mother and
two children dead. A father sick, without fortune, and hardened by
the loss of his two most beloved family members. A son destroyed by
alcohol and opiates. And three strong, intelligent young women,
reduced to poverty and spinsterhood, with nothing to save them from
their fate. Nothing, that is, except their remarkable literary
talent. So unfolds the story of the Brontë sisters. At its center
are Charlotte and the writing of Jane Eyre. Delicately unraveling the
connections between one of fiction's most indelible heroines and the
remarkable woman who created her, Sheila Kohler's Becoming Jane Eyre
will appeal to fans of historical fiction and, of course, the
millions of readers who adore Jane Eyre.
