The Brontes: Selected Poems

3.9/5 ( ratings)

Come hither, child--who gifted thee
With power to touch that string so well?
--From "Come Hither, Child" by Emily Brontë

Though best known for their novels, Charlotte and Emily Brontë, and siblings Anne and Patrick Branwell, also wrote remarkable poetry. The finest examples from each of the four appear here, and they present fascinating images of nature, character portraits, dark musings, and deeply emotional reflections. From Charlotte comes “The Teacher’s Monologue;” Patrick’s work includes “Death Triumphant;” Emily offers a series of songs, and Anne is represented by “The Captive Dove,” and more.
