Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell (version 2)



Description Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell (version 2)


The Bronte sisters, most famous for their novels, began their career with a slim volume of poetry, published under pseudonyms. It only sold two volumes, but inspired much interest in the identities of the unknown poets. This is a recording of the more successful 1850 edition, which includes additional poems by Emily and Anne which Charlotte collected after their deaths. (Summary by Libby Gohn)
