content: What were these three sisters doing to produce such great books in such short lives? This book is ahead of its time, and a page turner. Yes, a Victorian page turner. Everytime I thought the problem was about as bad as it could get and Anne Bronte would start wrapping it up, it got worse. For those who have read it, I've got to say Frederick Lawrence is far too forgiving...As for the writing, I had to admire how Anne Bronte let the reader in on things that went right over the heads of her narrators. This book is still fresh and well worth the time.
