Brontë (Nick Hern Book)

"How is it possible that three Victorian spinsters, living in isolation on the Yorkshire moors, could have written some of the most powerful and passionate fiction of all time? It is 1845. Branwell returns home in disgrace. Plagued by alcohol and drug addiction, he has been dismissed after having an affair with the mistress of the house he went to as a tutor. As he descends into alcoholism and insanity, bringing chaos to the household, his sisters write. This new play by Polly Teale evokes the real and imagined world of the Brontes, as the fictional characters come to haunt their creators. Bronte was premiered by Shared Experience in a production directed by the author."--Jacket.
