β¦ Synopsis
The most cherished novels from England's talented sisters, all in one gorgeously packaged volume
The BrontΓ« family was a literary phenomenon unequalled before or since. Both Charlotte's Jane Eyre and Emily's Wuthering Heights have won lofty places in the pantheon and stirred the romantic sensibilities of generations of readers.

"Denise Giardina's extraordinary gift for conjuring voices of the past has never been more bewitchingly deployed than here in Emily's Ghost--a romance so tormentedly devoted to its struggle toward truth that Bronte herself would be proud of it." --Madison Smartt Bell Enigmatic, intelligent, and fie
