Introducing...
Anne Brontë
Anne’s novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, has been considered by modern scholars as one of the first feminist novels, for its unsoftened depiction of domestic abuse and the heroine’s escape from her situation in a time where divorce wasn’t an option.
Born 17 January 1820, Anne Brontë was an English novelist and poet. She was the youngest of four Brontë siblings (out of six) who survived to adulthood; her two sisters, Charlotte and Emily, also published novels and poems that have become beloved literary classics.
Anne, who first published her works under the pseudonym Acton Bell, released Agnes Grey in 1847, followed by The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848). She died May 28th 1849.
- Her sister Charlotte unpublished THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL after Anne's death and as such subsequent critics paid her less attention.
- She is the least well-known of the Brontë sisters.
- THE TENANT OF WILDFELL HALL has been adapted for TV.
