"Fugitive, at odds with conventions, Brontë emerges in the following pages as a mythic figure — almost impossible to grasp — but also as a woman tending to the household: sewing, peeling potatoes, sitting at an open window, and picking up her pencil. The line between the domestic and the cosmic was, for Emily Brontë, permeable."

the more I read about her life the more I thank the heavens for having been born exactly where I was and exactly I the time I was, not a year before or after
