It could be said that Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell – better known as Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë – are as famous for their lives
as for their classic novels.
And for the endless myths and mysteries, legends and lies that have grown up around them from the earliest days following the publication of their books.
In an introduction to a recent edition of Emily’s Wuthering Heights one scholar likened the myth of the sisters as “a triple icon of inspired but naive creativity, of three eccentric geniuses blazing forth briefly but gloriously”, despite personal circumstances.
It was a description that inspired this seasonal fantasy greeting from literature’s most famous siblings.
