--Literary Review
"Lutz makes connections that are effective and often full of enjoyable speculation...In looking at the Brontės through their most precious possessions, Lutz lets us sneak a peek at their inner lives as well as their outer ones, in a sympathetic and informative way."
--The Independent--Times Higher Education
"a dynamic, powerful and very accessible book...Deborah Lutz's frankness about her own fascination and her willingness to leave space for other people's fascination with the "three weird sisters", as Ted Hughes (himself fascinated) calls them, makes this wonderfully fresh and insightful biography simultaneously an act of resurrection and of mourning."

Book Description Hard Cover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First. A new unread copy with new dustjacket which is not price clipped. However there is a very small flaw to the front of the dust jacket. First Edition, First Printing. xxv + 310 pages. 14 black and white and 10 colour illustrations. In this unique and lovingly detailed biography of a literary family that has enthralled readers for nearly two centuries, Victorian literature scholar Deborah Lutz illuminates the complex and fascinating lives of the Brontė's through the things they wore, stitched, wrote on, and inscribed. By unfolding the histories of the meaningful objects in their family home at Haworth, Lutz immerses readers in a nuanced re-creation of the sisters' daily lives while moving us chronologically forward through the major biographical events: the death of their mother and two sisters, the imaginary kingdoms of their childhood writing, their time as governeses, and their determined efforts to make a mark on the literary world. From the miniature books they made as children to the blackthorn walking sticks they carried on solitary hikes on the moors, each personal possession opens a window onto the sisters' world.
