Representaion Concering Books The Letters of Charlotte Brontë: With a Selection of Letters by Family and Friends, Volume I: 1829-1847
Despite Charlotte Bronte's entreaty to her lifelong friend Ellen Nussey to burn her correspondence, very little seems to have been destroyed, and in this fully annotated edition, based as far as possible on original manuscripts, many confidential and outspoken letters are published in full for the first time. As well as Charlotte's own letters from 1829 to 1847, a handful of important letters and diary extracts by her friends and family illuminate the writer's correspondence. This volume covers the period from her childhood up to the publication and review of Jane Eyre."

Charlotte in her own words; invaluable for piercing the (well-intentioned) veil that Elizabeth Gaskell and Ellen Nussey pulled over the less Victorian aspects of this singular woman's fiery spirit. Just to watch her juggle her agonies over Constantin Heger's silence, her struggles to get published, all while keeping up everyday correspondences in which she can't divulge her secret lives is fascinating. A must-read for Bronte enthusiasts.
