Ah, the successes and faults of the Brontės...,

This review is from: Best Poems of the Brontė Sisters (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)
This is a rather small book composed of various poems by Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontė. It's divided into three parts; one for each author.
I gave it three stars because it's a good collection, but not really a good read. I find the Brontė's poetry rather dry and cumbersome compared to their books, but it's still worth a look if you're a true fan. Emily is by far the best poet of the three, and at a whopping $2.00, you're not out much if you decide you don't like it... and you definitely get all that you paid for with this one.

This review is from: Best Poems of the Brontė Sisters (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)
I enjoyed the selected poems. I saw a lot of the same passion in the poems that I have seen also in many of their novels. If you enjoyed the poems you should be sure to get a hold of the Tenant of Wildfell Hall written by Anne Bronte and my utmost favorite Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte is definitely a book I would recommend.

Excellent!,

If you love the Bronte's novels, you'll love their poetry. You learn so much about their lives and relationships with each other by reading it. After reading a biograhpy of the famous family, I can more fully appreciate the poetry that got them started.
