The Brontes

The Bronte's are the most successful sibling authors in the English language. Their novels offer some of the most complex female characters of all time. They were far ahead of their time as far as subject matter. Most of which was not proper to discuss by decent society. They each gave to English women an escape from their restrictive lives. 

Charlotte Bronte

Charlotte Bronte was the most famous of the Bronte. She wrote Jane Eyre, which has to be the most of the most romantic love stories in the English language. Jane is an orphan girl, who is not beautiful, but her strength of character and moral fortitude propels her to the happiest conclusion. No spoiler alert.

Charlotte wrote Jane Eyre under the pseudonym, Currer Bell. Most people thought it was a male author, because the complexity and mastery of the English language convinced the public of its being so. She wrote Jane Eyre to combat the ever-present novel with a beautiful heroine acquiring the happy ending. She declared that a plain heroine is just as engaging to the reader as any breathtaking heroine ever was.

This is definitely a great novel. Every reader should have this in their book collection.

She wrote other novels, but this is Charlotte's most popular one.

Emily Bronte

Emily Bronte was the second most-famous Bronte sister, after Charlotte. She wrote the wildly popular Wuthering Heights. This novel is based around an incredibly dysfunctional love story between Catherine and Heathcliff. Catherine betrays Heathcliff by marrying a man she didn't love for money. He's the classic tragic character, who retaliates to everyone around him in the most sadistic way imaginable. She also wrote other novels, but were not as famous as Wuthering Heights.

Anne Bronte

Anne Bronte was the least known Bronte, and least published. She wrote a magnificient story, called The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This novel was the story of a young mother, who flees her abusive, controlling, selfish husband and resides in secrecy with her son. This was a shocking subject matter for the time, and touches on a topic that was not widely accepted. It's hard to find a copy of this wonderful novel, but it is a masterpiece. I believe Anne's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is not as appreciated as it deserves. In fact, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is hard to find in circulation, because she's not as celebrated as either of her sisters.
