The Poetry of the Brontë Sisters
A hundred and eighty years ago the first publication by the “Bells” appeared: an obscure volume of poems which sold only two copies. Eighteen months later Jane Eyre would become a bestseller. This talk will explore the history of Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell and pay tribute to the Brontë sisters as poets.
This Thursday Talk will be given by author, teacher and Museum volunteer Tamar Yellin.

All information is correct at the time of booking.
