Famed for her beloved novels, Charlotte Brontë has been known as well for her insular, tragic family life. The genius of this biography is that it delves behind this image to reveal a life in which loss and heartache existed alongside rebellion and fierce ambition. Harman seizes on a crucial moment in the 1840's when Charlotte worked at a girls' school in Brussels and fell hopelessly in love with the husband of the school's headmistress. Her torment spawned her first attempts at writing for publication, and he haunts the pages of every one of her novels--he is Rochester in Jane Eyre, Paul Emanuel in Villette. Another unrequited love--for her publisher--paved the way for Charlotte to enter a marriage that ultimately made her happier than she ever imagined. Drawing on correspondence unavailable to previous biographers, Claire Harman establishes Brontë the heroine of her own story, one as dramatic and triumphant as one of her own novels"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000762489 60010 $$aBrontë, Charlotte,$$d1816-1855. 000762489 650_0 $$aWomen authors, English$$y19th century$$vBiography. 000762489 650_0 $$aNovelists, English$$y19th century$$vBiography. 000762489 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 000762489 85200 $$bgen$$hPR4168$$i.H27$$i2016 000762489 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:762489$$pGLOBAL_SET 000762489 980__ $$aBIB 000762489 980__ $$aBOOK
