The Brontës: A Family Writes

The Brontës: A Family Writes
- An elegant publication that provides an intimate portrait of a family of writers, drawing on the rich BrontÃ« collection of the Morgan Library & Museum
- A comprehensive array of manuscripts, rare printed books, personal documents and private letters to present a striking history of a remarkable family
- Accompanies a major exhibition at the Morgan Library, New York, from September 2016 January 2017
The BrontÃ«s of Haworth were a prodigiously imaginative literary family. From the earliest manuscripts of Charlotte, Branwell, Emily and Anne - written with a quill pen in a minuscule hand designed to mimic the printed page - to explosive novels, such as Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre, written in adulthood by Emily and Charlotte, the family's writings continue to fascinate.

This elegantly designed, fully illustrated publication provides an intimate portrait of a singular family of writers through the manuscripts, rare printed books, personal documents, and private letters preserved in the BrontÃ« collection of the Morgan Library & Museum, one of the world's finest.

It accompanies a major exhibition at the Morgan from 9 September 2016 to 2 January 2017.
