Occupation

Description
The youngest of her literary sisters, Anne Bronte is occasionally overlooked despite her considerable talent. Like Charlotte and Emily, Anne Bronte deftly bridges a gothic sensibility with trenchant social commentary. Her novels provide insightful critiques of Victorian class dynamics and gender politics. Bronte's rich, character-driven stories feature female protagonists navigating a repressive social climate that is often outright hostile to women in order to achieve a measure of independence. Much like her sisters, Anne Bronte's novels are still read today, not only because they share many of our modern sensibilities, but because of the quality of her storytelling. Start with: The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
