A beautifully imagined tale of the Brontë sisters, "Becoming Jane Eyre" delicately unravels the connections between one of fiction's most indelible heroines and the remarkable woman who created her.
"The year is 1846. In a cold parsonage on the gloomy Yorkshire moors, a family seems cursed with disaster. A mother and two children dead. A father sick, without fortune, and hardened by the loss of his two most beloved family members. A son destroyed by alcohol and opiates. And three strong, intelligent young women, reduced to poverty and spinsterhood, with nothing to save them from their fate. Nothing, that is, except their remarkable literary talent. So unfolds the story of the Bronte sisters. At its centre are Charlotte and the writing of Jane Eyre. (Publisher)."
""1846. In a damp, cold parsonage on the Yorkshire moors, a family seems cursed with disaster: a mother and two children dead; a father sick, without fortune and hardened by the loss of family; a son destroyed by alcohol and opiates; and three strong, intelligent young women, reduced to poverty and spinsterhood, with nothing to save them from their fate - nothing, that is, except their remarkable literary talent. So unfolds the story of the Brontë sisters - Charlotte, Emily and Anne. At its centre are Charlotte and the writing of 'Jane Eyre', and the overlapping narratives of author and heroine - including Charlotte's love affair with a married man." [Source : 4e de couv.]."
