Sinopse: Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë—faced with na ailing father
and na alcoholic brother—pursue independence through art in this graphic vision
of the lives of three legendary writers.
Despite their family’s stormy fortunes, the Brontë sisters resolved to
write. To thwart the nineteenth century’s double standards, they took the names
of men, becoming the Bell brothers. Their works incited controversy and
speculation, while at home, the sisters contended with the rages of Branwell
Brontë, their self-destructive sibling. Manuela Santoni presents a time before
Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall were known as
literary masterpieces, when winds shook the Brontë house and determination held
it together.
Ano passado eu li, da mesma autora, a hq sobre Jane Austen. Neste volume
sobre as irmãs Brontë, ela mantém a sensibilidade. Quem conta a história é Branwell,
ele aborda a vida deles no presbitério até as mortes de cada um, e mostra o que
se transformou Haworth nos dias atuais, com seu museu em homenagem as irmãs. Amei
e indico.
