Description

Emily Brontë's poetry is more often celebrated than read. This book seeks to reinstate her poems at the heart of Victorian writing while underlining their relevance. For admirers of 'Wuthering Heights', this work brings the concerns and methods of the novel into focus by relating them to the poems.
