All true histories contain instruction; though, in some, the treasure may be hard to find, and when found, so trivial in quantity, that the dry, shrivelled kernel scarcely compensates for the trouble of cracking the nut. Whether this be the case with my history or not, I am hardly competent to judge. I sometimes think it might prove useful to some, and entertaining to others; but the world may judge for itself. Shielded by my own obscurity, and by the lapse of years, and a few fictitious names, I do not fear to venture; and will candidly lay before the public what I would not disclose to the most intimate friend.

When a mysterious young widow arrives at Wildfell Hall, with her young son and a servant, rumours abound. She lives there in strict seclusion under the assumed name Helen Graham and soon becomes a social outcast. Refusing to believe anything scandalous about her, Gilbert Markham befriends Helen and discovers her past. What follows is a journey of truth, love, and reconciliation. Probably the most shocking of the Brontës'' novels, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall was an instant and phenomenal success. The depiction of marital strife and women''s professional identification has a strong moral message mitigated by the author''s belief in universal salvation. Most critics now consider The Tenant of Wildfell Hall to be one of the first feminist novels. In leaving her husband and taking away their child, Helen violates not only social conventions but also the early 19th century English law. This cloth-bound book includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket, and is limited to 100 copies.

Agnes Grey is the debut novel of English author Anne Brontë (writing under the pen name of Acton Bell), first published in December 1847, and republished in a second edition in 1850. The novel follows Agnes Grey, a governess, as she works within families of the English gentry. Scholarship and comments by Anne''s sister Charlotte Brontë suggest the novel is largely based on Anne Brontë''s own experiences as a governess for five years. Like her sister Charlotte''s novel Jane Eyre, it addresses what the precarious position of governess entailed and how it affected a young woman.The choice of central character allows Anne to deal with issues of oppression and abuse of women and governesses, isolation and ideas of empathy. An additional theme is the fair treatment of animals. Agnes Grey also mimics some of the stylistic approaches of bildungsromans, employing ideas of personal growth and coming to age, but representing a character who in fact does not gain in virtue.

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is the second and final novel by the English author Anne Bronte. It was first published in 1848 under the pseudonym Acton Bell. Probably the most shocking of the Brontes'' novels, it had an instant and phenomenal success, but after Anne''s death her sister Charlotte prevented its re-publication. The novel is framed as a series of letters from Gilbert Markham to his friend and brother-in-law about the events leading to his meeting his wife. A mysterious young widow arrives at Wildfell Hall, an Elizabethan mansion which has been empty for many years, with her young son and servant. She lives there in strict seclusion under the assumed name Helen Graham and very soon finds herself the victim of local slander. Refusing to believe anything scandalous about her, Gilbert Markham, a young farmer, discovers her dark secrets. In her diary, Helen writes about her husband''s physical and moral decline through alcohol, and the world of debauchery and cruelty from which she has fled. This novel of marital betrayal is set within a moral framework tempered by Anne''s optimistic belief in universal salvation."

Poetry reflecting the early Victorian trends in literature. “Love is like the wild rose-briar;/Friendship like the holly-tree./The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms,/But which will bloom most constantly?”-Love and Friendship A volume of poetry written by the Bronte sisters described by Emily, the middle sister, as “ crude thoughts of the unripe mind”.

Chi è l’affascinate signora nerovestita che si è installata nella decrepita, isolata residenza di Wildfell Hall? Quella donna sola, che vive con un bambino e un’anziana domestica, sarà davvero la giovane vedova che dice di essere? Helen Graham è estremamente riservata e il suo passato è avvolto in un fitto mistero. Fa il possibile per ridurre al minimo i contatti con i suoi vicini, a costo di apparire scostante e ombrosa, e trascorre le giornate dipingendo e prendendosi cura – fin troppo amorevolmente, dice qualcuno – del piccolo Arthur. Ma Gilbert Markham, giovane gentiluomo di campagna tutto dedito ai suoi terreni e al corteggiamento di fanciulle tanto graziose quanto superficiali, è subito punto da una viva curiosità per quella donna che lo tratta con insolita freddezza, quasi nutrisse diffidenza e disprezzo nei confronti dell’intero genere maschile. Il comportamento schivo di Helen suscita presto voci e pettegolezzi maligni e lo stesso Gilbert, che pure è riuscito con delicatezza e pazienza a stringere una bella e intensa amicizia con lei, è portato a sospettare. Solo quando la donna gli consegnerà il proprio diario emergeranno i dettagli del disastroso passato che si è lasciata alle spalle. Nel 1848, la più giovane delle sorelle Brontë dà alle stampe un romanzo scandaloso al di là delle intenzioni: linguaggio esplicito, crude descrizioni di alcolismo e brutalità – pare che uno dei personaggi maschili sia modellato sullo scapestrato fratello Branwell – e soprattutto una donna che non perde mai il rispetto di sé e lotta per la propria indipendenza, con una forza incrollabile sostenuta da fede, intelligenza e coraggio, fino a violare le convenzioni sociali e persino la legge inglese. Un testo femminista ante litteram in spregio alla morale vittoriana, ma impietoso contro il vizio e la debolezza anche quando sono incarnati da figure fem minili: l’adultera Lady Lowborough, la troppo mite Milicent, la maliziosa e quasi maligna Eliza Millward. Nell’introduzione alla seconda edizione, Anne (sotto le mentite spoglie di Acton Bell) spiega chiaramente il suo intento: rappresentare il male non nella sua luce “meno cruda” ma mostrandone il vero volto. Perché occultare il vero non aiuta a scansare il peccato e l’infelicità: meglio “poche e salutari verità” di “tante sciocche blandizie”. «Ogni romanzo», dice Acton Bell, «dovrebbe esser scritto affinché lo leggano uomini e donne, e non riesco proprio a immaginare come potrebbe un uomo permettersi di scrivere qualcosa di davvero vergognoso per una donna, o perché una donna dovrebbe essere censurata per aver scritto qualcosa di decoroso e appropriato per un uomo». «Una formidabile storia d’amore e di speranza, oppressione, peccato e tradimento». Daily Mail

The only one-volume hardcover edition of the two uncommonly powerful novels written by the youngest of the famous Brontë sisters. Anne Brontë wrote these two fantastically successful novels just before her tragically early death, both of them in a much more grittily realistic mode than the more romantic ones favored by her sisters. Agnes Grey, the story of a governess working for disdainful and cruel employers, is a wrenching account of the desperate straits faced by Victorian women without money or husband. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall tells a story that was shocking for its time: a woman leaves her alcoholic and abusive husband in order to protect their young son and must live in hiding to prevent the law from taking her child away from her. These novels have become classics not only by dint of the subtle and ironic force of Anne Brontë''s prose but because of the passionate indictments of social injustice that animate them.

Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte are three of the most remarkable novelists and poets of the ninetieth century. Jack Hewer illustrates this complete treasury with landscape drawings and the remainder of the illustrations are by B. S. Grieg. Charlotte was the most prolific of the sisters and best known for Jane Eyre. Anne Bronte was the author of Anges Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. And Emily Bronte’s crowning achievement is Wuthering Heights. Readers will delight in the comprehensive packaging of these classics.
